by Toni Herrbach

Today was a really, really bad day. The transmission needs to be replaced in one of our vehicles, and then this afternoon my 3 yo spilled a glass of water on my camera and laptop.

Our Story or HIStory

by Toni Herrbach

Happy has asked me to write about this part of our story. I'll try to do my best to explain what happened when she asked me for a divorce and the aftermath of that phone call. If you are new to my site you might want to read the previous chapters in Our Story before reading on. Happy let me know that we'd been living separate lives, more than the miles required.
