But it was while I was in the abusive relationship that she helped me. It was with the help of several others that I was able to escape the man I was involved with. I may work up the courage to tell that story with the next posting.Garnetrosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09911448607956799034noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2425548329499971328.post-127411123781394662011-02-01T07:12:17.826-08:002011-02-01T07:12:17.826-08:00What a great lady.

I relate all too well to this story since I grew up on a farm and know the hard work all too well and for awhile I was a farm wife myself to my own abusive husband. I think of the angels that were sent to me in my hard times and I am really thankful for them. I am so thankful you got out of the abuse, met Florence and then your husband. Beautiful. Hope all is well for your daughters and granddaughter. Hope your mother in law is doing better.

She probably still is in some ways.<br />That was a beautiful story Garnet, how fortunate you were to find her at such a difficult time and then end up meeting your husband through her. It sounds like divine intervention to me!<br />Love Di ♥Dianahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11429812875586479256noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2425548329499971328.post-46290050046065544542011-02-01T05:34:52.738-08:002011-02-01T05:34:52.738-08:00Sounds like a wonderful lady.

You see her husband told her one day he didn't love her any more and since they were living in his grandfathers house that he bought after his death that meant she would have to leave and start on her own later to find out he was in love with her best friend. Also she has always been petite and never over 100 lbs. and a hard worker. She had had it tough but keeps on keeping on. I am so happy you had someone to help you when you needed help.<br />OdieAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00920831144240024660noreply@blogger.com
