Another one down. Stronger with each new thread, that's for sure.
Had a wonderful weekend. D6 had an extra day off (Friday) so I made it her day. She chose the pumpkin patch, bowling, and then dinner with neighbors. We did it all. She even conned frozen custard out of me super LATE that night. She went to bed with a smile, all worth it. I miss her so much during the week. D4 is spunky as ever and I see plenty of her.
Snuck out (got a sitter, goodness forbid H watch the kids for me) with my close friend Saturday night. So nice to be with her. Her D will be final tomorrow. Sigh. Same position as all of us, really. I'll be thinking of her.
I'm ordering a vodka and 7up. Yep, the hard stuff!
So was the frozen custard Ted Drews? If not then she just does not know her custard! Sorry to hear about your friend. I have found that once my M started to fall apart, my close friends started to see cracks as well. My best friend filed last week. For 6 months I tried to get her to work on it but she was determined to just leave. He did all of the wrong things and made matters worst, cementing her decision. Sad thing is that deep down I dont think she wants this but feels there is no other alternative because he keeps doing the same thingover and over and over. How many of us were guilty of that? Anyway, she helped me to see the WAS side of things at time. I hate to see any M end when it does not have to but they have to make their own decisions, dont they.
You and I SOOOOOO need to get together! Would love to go to Niche with you one night. Take good care of yourself and thanks for checking up on me. I really appreciate it. As always, you are in my thoughts!

If I were still drinkin' I'd be asking for some good orange juice and some Stoli as a chaser (mixing my own Screwdrivers internally) -- it's been one of those days, not so much bad as looong.
But since I've been a good boy (for so long I can't remember), the orange juice alone will do.
I love the D6 day. It's great to get the one-on-one with each of the kids. D7 and I sort of had that with the cub scouts last evening.
I love the frozen custard too, but even a good soft-serve ice cream is good if it's done up right. My employer served us up some frozen custard to the employees just yesterday.
Tonight is my first time on DB for months. I posted an update in piecing ... yeah, H and I are still piecing. Sometimes I feel like we're making progress and other times I feel like we're going nowhere fast. H's court case is ..... still pending!
I need to read up on your sitch but see your D is just around the corner .
I see NoCode is still posting. I'll have to check up on him. Where is Husband?
And JOIE!!!!!!!!!!! MWAH MWAH MWAH!!!!! I will go read your update. I have missed you, and soooo glad to see you are still piecing!!!
Journaling:
Today, my beautiful D6 ran in her mile race at school. D4 and I went to cheer her on (D4 even made her a sign...sigh...). She came in 4th out of the whole first grade. She did not get the running gene from me, as I barely pounded out 2 miles this morning on the treadmill. Bottom line: she rocks.
Saw original OW at the race. Boy, I think I am immune to her, but she still affects me. I try hard though. She sure scurried away when I arrived though.
H was soooo busted last night. Took the girls around a certain "friend" again. This is not original OW, but someone in H's life. This is the 2nd time in a week, they have gone and seen H's 'friend'. I don't not ask for details, continue to tell him its wrong. He denies dating this person.
Me: Sorry if I don't believe you about just being friends with this person. See, last summer, you burned me with 'just friends' with OW. I don't trust you.
H: Last year, I had everything to lose. That's why I lied. What do I have to lose now? Nothing. I am telling you the truth. I wouldn't do that, take them around someone I am dating.
He has a point (he really doesn't lie when he is called on something anymore), but still. I tried to point out to him that I don't care about HIS private life, but he needs to see HIS life through the girls eyes. Blah blah blah. He's a fool. Can't change what he does, can only do what I can to be the best mom I know how to be.
Wow, sorry you had to see her again. ANytime I think that I could possibly see OW, I get sick to my stomache. I have never seen her in person or talked to her and hope that I never have to. You are a much stronger person than me. (((lwb)

Hey miss lwb... sounds like a great day with D6... That's great!! I bet you that OW is more uncomfortable than you, im sure of it!!
Good for you for saying something about this new "friend" of his. That is such bs.. even though he has nothing to lose, once a liar, most of the time Always a liar.. its second nature, and sometimes that honestly believe their lies.
Your doing great, and im so happy for you!!!
