I've spent a LOT of time trying to think of a graceful way to say this, but there just isn't one. I tried disappearing from the interwebs for a while, but that's not feasible living so far away from all my family and relatives. So, I had mostly settled for just living my life, and not making an announcement about it. But, people are really sweet out there, and remember things like anniversaries...or they ask about my life...and I just feel bad and dishonest that they don't know.
So, just to put it out there, Jon and I are separated. Because it isn't just MY story, I'm not going to publish any details on my blog, or facebook, or anything. We haven't been trying to keep it a secret, and I've been more than willing [desperate, even] to talk about it with people in my life, but there just isn't an etiquette book out there on this in regard to social media. I would welcome your prayers for each of us, and especially for Max. Thanks-
