My aunt got a jag off of ebay.....thousands below blue book...it's been awesome for her.
when I was car shopping I bought that carchex thingie and it was awesome. there was a lot of info there that I otherwise wouldn't have known.
I love my car (even if I didn't buy it off ebay) but it sure helped to bring in those price quotes too...helped me get my car about 3000 under blue book value!!!
OT's post very much applied to me, too. I still want X to be unhappy, to "pay" for what he did. Maybe it's because I'm feeling lonely right now and yes, sometimes I feel unworthy of love because my H left me. I want him to feel pain.
My ex, though, I think will remain self-centered b/c he's always been that way. It would be best for him to have a good R with the kids. He just called and told me he'll be going to hear a speech contest that DD's is in. I can't go b/c I'm working, so I know she'll be happy, but I'm JEALOUS!!! *I* want to be the best parent! *stomp*
Yeah, I'm a baby, so what?

Things are good around here...mostly. The kids are expressing their pain about Mitch moving and it's breaking my heart. Some are just angry and act out. Some brood quietly which is almost worse.
I wrote Mitch very matter-of-factly about them--he'll either help them or he won't but since he's their father I figured he should know.
I really like the guy I'm dating. He's very sweet and manly and I feel very comfortable and safe with him. He's confident and not cocky--very nice combo. He's a handsome devil too--sheesh! And he is so devoted to his children--I LOVE that. Anyway, gotta keep the love goggles off still for a while. I keep resisting them because I know it's too soon to get all ga-ga so I'm being reasonable (well, I think I am anyway).
I'm flying to Cleveland to get my car tomorrow. They need to fix something first so I'm a little nervous. I had it inspected and the inspector noticed a "clunking" sound when it was being driven. I still don't know what it is but they assure me it will be taken care of by tomorrow. I hope so--it's got me a little nervous though for sure.
Well, that's about all for now. I've got an incredibly busy month coming up which is nice but I'm not feeling too motivated to work right now. I'll get back in the groove but I have noticed when I am "dating" I am less productive. I wonder what the deal is with that.
I was thinking about you and your kids yesterday. Also last week when I watched a show on TLC about a family with twins who then had sextuplets! Amazing! My hat is off to you.
Sorry the kids are having a hard time but that is natural since they love their dad. Too bad he is too selfish to "get that".
Good luck getting your new Chrysler tommorrow. I hope the clunk is nothing. I have had great success with mine.
Email me when you get a min - need to ask you something.

I'm glad things are going well with Karate Guy. It sounds like you are being wise, but still vulnerable, which is a hard combo to master, and you're doing well with it.
As for the kids...I wish I had some good ideas for that, but I don't. They will adjust of course, but you will have to be the one who deals with their unhappiness in the meantime. I'm glad you told Mitch, and you're right - he will deal with it if/when he is emotionally able.
Happy spring!
Nicola
