He was talking to me while he was sitting in his car sort of yelling to me on the porch. I let him yell. It was about S's braces to be. XH wasn't being mean, just had to raise his voice to hear me..Too bad.
Eventually, I went over because he was offering to pay for braces and I wanted to hear the details. lol
We discussed D's dance classes (big bucks) and S's braces (big bucks). He agreed that he would pay. I said," that's fair since we can pretend that my C.S. is based on your REAL income, so you can pay for these extras."
He looked ahead and started to smile that dumb smile like he was caught.
He talked my ear off. As usual. But this time he was Mr. Humble. I did address the texts he sent me and how it was unacceptable. He said you made me mad. I said to him that stuff doesn't work nor intimidate me anymore. Case closed. I told him you act like a child and have a tantrum, I ignore you.
He started to laugh.
A friend of ours from a loong time ago stopped since he was driving down the street. It was great to see him. From what I understand he and XH are good friends right now. That made me happy since they lost touch for years.He is a good egg but going through his own marital problems. He talked both of our ears off about his wife this visit. I just listened and so did XH.
Then, when the guy left XH told me he tells the guy to not leave his wife and it is no better out there.
Funny..
Well, my head is spinning naturally since the old XH left and I HATE THAT..He looked like the old H and was nicer than the old H.
It's easier when he is a jerk.
But, he is still the male chauvinist as he told me he wanted to enroll in some classes at a local college. I thought that was odd until he told me he wanted to take cheerleading 101 and be the spotter..YUK~!
Today is my ONE YEAR ANNIVERSARY since the big "D".
What a difference a year makes..
have a great day all..
big hugs,
p.s I am not sad at all..Actually, I am happy I don't have to deal with the legal crap and the indecision anymore. And, the funny part is XH and I are cordial, too.
In the past year I finished school, quit smoking, started back at the gym (up to 15 miles a week), started a business, got a new job at a local college, did a good job with my kids and SURVIVED!
I know I listed all this stuff but it makes me happy to do it again..
