Angie, Mandy took the words right out of my mouth! File them on a dvd or whatever, and you can decide later. When I was deciding to divorce my second husband, I kept a few journals, which I hid at work. Several years later, I took them out and decided I didn't want to go back to revisit those feelings. I threw them into a dumpster somewhere in Brooklyn. You might decide that or you might want to deal with them - and once you do file them, maybe you can put them out of your mind for now. Hugs and prayers, Judy

Grr...I may not have a problem anymore! My external hard-drive (where I keep ALL of my pictures) is no longer being recognized by either of our computers. My hubby, being the awesomely geeky computer nerd that he is, thinks he can retrieve all of the data without a problem, but it will have to wait a week until we get back from Pittsburgh...so no pictures for me for a while...

Angie, those pictures were haunting you and taking your emotions to a place that made you unhappy. Now fate has forced you to take a break from them and focus on your trip instead. I really believe things happen for a reason, and the more we fight it, the harder it is on us. This might bejust the break you need from them to put things into a happier perspective.
I hope you're able to leave the sadness associated with them behind as you go make some new memories. Whether your dh is able to get them back for you later or not, you still have the memories in your mind to call up when you want to.

The Lord does work in mysterious ways, doesn't he?
Enjoy Pittsburgh. Judy

I'll try to enjoy the trip. Our friend that we were really excited about seeing is going to be in Alaska while we are there...He left today so we are a little disappointed that we barely missed him. I love Brendon's family, but they are quite a group and they don't always get along very well so I don't know how I'll handle staying at his Mom's house the whole time rather than with our friend. We'll see how it goes...
Either way, it'll be nice to be away from day to day life for a while.
