I plan on it - same back to you all, I'm making my last rounds of the evening.
Just a funny tidbit:
W has OM over for a game night once a week usually - again, the weirdest dating regimen I've ever seen, but oh well.
Anyway, S6 was telling me about his week, and game night, and he said Mom and OM were playing, then she quit, and went and played with kids, but OM stayed at the table. Hee hee, if it didn't make me slightly nauseated that he is playing with my kids, I would just have to laugh at it all.
I'm really going to enjoy this, I'm afraid, once W only has OM to talk to.
Again, a great day, a great weekend coming up - I feel like my life is starting anew. It's gonna have it's rough moments, but wahoo!
It has been a good weekend. Friday night, the kids and I just piddled around, and had a good night, stayed up late.
My parents and two of my kids' favorite nieces came up Saturday morning - we went to Bob Evans, then they went with us for D8 and S6's last cheer leading and basketball game. Then we went shopping a little, and just lazed around. W texted me a bunch on Saturday - sent me texts, pictures, video clips. She took her client to a ballet in down town Columbus.
I took the kids to church with me Sunday morning and let my parents sleep in (they don't get to do that much) - my mom cooked a huge meat-on-your-bones meal, and we ate that, then they had to leave. A very available lady there who has two kids my kids age gave me about a 3-minute hug! I started to feel a little awkward! We're going to get together in a couple of weeks...
I took kids to the park, where they got to pet some ferrets, then we went to take back some jeans for S6 (he's growing a mile a minute), and ate at Chipotle.
I guess Pearl and I are having a similar weekend - I'm really missing our family. I actually broke my dark - our kids pet these ferrets at the park, it was so cool, so I sent pictures. Then she started texting me stuff, and sent me some pictures, and then when we went and got Chipotle, I texted her a picture of chips and salsa because they are her absolute favorite. She texted me back a picture of a microwave pizza she was having for dinner at work.
I guess what has hit me this weekend is how "close" we are - not relationally, but to getting things on track. We have always gotten along really well, and it was just the crap that got between us, and it seems like that is gone. W just insists on hanging on to nothing at this point.
I got a call from the community pool we went to last year - went A LOT as a family, and they made some comment about a three-person family being XYZ cheaper than four. Also, we will be having our first Easter as a three-person family, planning vacation with just the three of us, and so on.
Sigh, just a bit melancholy - not changing my mind at all, D will be filed Friday unless God absolutely prevents me, so I'm leaving it up to him. 5 days and counting! I realize that filing isn't the "end" necessarily, but I don't see any reason why I would change at that point.
If I'm going to take that step, and sit down and explain to my kids why I'm doing it, then I'm not going to play around with it.
I won't do the typical WAS deal - where they reconsider, and three days later they're back with OM/OW.
