Take the girls to the beach, the park, the zoo, hiking, biking, swimming, camping, whatever it is you like to do and have access too.
I took S4 to the water park last weekend and he LOVED it, I got a season pass, we'll go whenever he wants and we don't have to be stuck in places that remind us of W (practically everywhere!)
Sitting at home with your pictures around, and your couch, and bed, etc, that will not help your predicament.
Have fun!!!
Well tomorrow evening the girls and I are heading to our beach house. I'm sure that will bring a flood of emotions for me. It's been a retreat from it all but unfortunately it holds a lot of emotions too. She's the beach person more than me. We got the beach place because she wanted it. The girls love it to death and wish we could live there year round. The three of us will have a lot of fun there but at night I know I'll struggle a great deal. At least our good close friends will be there too so that'll make a huge difference.
If you've read through most of my threads you'll find I have spent a lot of time at our beach place. Unfortunately a lot of that time has been off season so it's really quiet there, not good. I'd done my fair share of drinking my troubles away there. I've got some funny memories out of that but too many painful ones too.
If we do end up divorced she wants us to keep the place together. I've decided I want no part of that, too many memories to deal with. It always feels a bit empty without her.
OK time to pick myself up because I am slowly slipping into the blues. It's been a slow, slow slide down this week. The combination of her out of the country and a very quiet week at work has been hard. Man I hope tomorrow we have all kinds of "fires" flare up. Then at least I'll have plenty to do!!
Well off to do a bunch of little jobs around the house for her. It sounds corny but I love tinkering around the house!
Man listen to me, as soon as I start detaching somehow, someway I get sucked right back in.
