~ Well... I am off to Pittsburgh tomorrow morning to begin my new life as a newly divorced man (after 23.5 years of marriage, it seems so strange).

~ It will be good to see family again and spend time with them.

~ But... I do need to gain employment and then buy a home, so I can start over on my own.

~ Hello to all and best wishes everyone.

Don't forget to come back and tell us just how great the "Burgh" is will you? What a great place to start over Mike, and here's wishing you the very best in your move. Take care, and don't be a stranger.

Good luck with everything.. you're now just a hop, skip, and jump away from me! I'm sure that is a scary thought!

Take care.. come down and see a Mountaineers game sometime

Just do us all a favor and don't become a Steelers fan!!!
lol

Ok, OK... I'll stop... as long as you hurry back to the blue pages.

Congrats again on getting your life back on track.

Mike, congratulations on your newfound freedom! You'll do wonderfully!

Maybe you can get back to writing again! I sure miss your poems.

You know where I am if you want to talk.

Good luck on the move.

Dixie,

Yes, I have settled, but am still not actually settled. I am living with my mother until I find employment and then I will buy a home and call for my daughter. Thank you for your concern

To all...

It feels good to be back in my home town after 23+ years.

And by the way, thanks for all of the reples and concerns from you all... some may not believe that Internet friends can be just as real friends... I believe that, although I hold my own reservations based upon my constant travel and loss of friends during my entire naval career.

Thank you all who have replied this topic... and Ringo... I have and always will be a STEELER fan!!!

That's all right Mike. I spent 3 years in Pittsburg in the Army, a long time before the city's "resurection." Great town. I'm still a Steelers fan too but also a Pirate's fan. Geez, we were there when they won the Series. What a party!
