Part of the definition of adventure means you don’t know what’s around the next corner. My blog says “Arlene’s adventure’s in life and around the world”. Some adventures in life are more like challenges in life.
Because I have been posting so regularly (and have fully enjoyed sharing this adventure with you), I feel that I must make public a private conclusion. Jim and I have decided to separate. We are supportive, concerned and compassionate of each other and the hard time we are each going through right now. Our Belize adventure was planned together and we don’t have the heart or desire to continue it without the other. So we are coming home.
While I generally appreciate all the comments and feedback, I respectfully request that you don’t comment on this. I am sure that all of your gracious thoughts, concerns, and prayers are with both of us and I thank you.
I will continue to post my adventures but maybe not for a little bit.

Love your new background!! About your last post: I am truely sorry you are having and heading into such a life changing situation. I will keep you & the family in my thoughts and prayers. I wish you all the very best. I am sorry this means you will be leaving Belize, I really like you and had hoped to get together with you on the caye, but maybe some other time & place. Take Care & Stay in Touch!!
Thank you. I absolutely will stay in touch Catherine. It was really nice meeting you and Charles as well. I will be returning at some point and maybe we can still meet on the caye.
When will you be home? If you need me booom@sympatico.ca. Love you
thanks Sheila. I will be in touch soon. hugs, Arlene
Are you coming back to the farm?
Glad to hear you are coming home.
