ST - We ARE really busy, but funny you mentioned dinners... those are something I have always REQUIRED of the family. H travels during the week, but when he's home mid-week we have dinner (which I make) as a family when we're done w/soccer stuff... OR H will come meet us out when we're done. And, we eat together all weekend. It does get tough, though, when they become teens. Once D18 had a job and license (at 16), it's pure chaos and destruction!

After many years w/my head in the sand... I FILED Divorced 6/2011
The average woman would rather have beauty than brains, because the average man can see better than he can think.
S12 won tonight as well! He gave up two, probably should have gotten the first, though it was really a defensive breakdown. The second would have just been luck to stop. But his team got three, so it's all good! Two more games tomorrow.
I'm going to add later, but I want you guys to know, with G's help, I feel positive about what's going on in my life, and in my M right now. I think I'm beyond all of this db'ing stuff (hey, I busted the divorce, right?), and moving on to reconnecting w/a man that's "mostly" still here for the kids right now, but is definitely "swayable".
Between building him up, building "us" up, and a series of small talking points, I really think we'll start to dig our way out of this limbo.
I'll add the examples later, but nothin' but positive results this weekend.
Thanks, everyone for their input, support, and embraces from afar, SO FAR!
