FIB, good seeing you around.... I have been following your thread... you seem to be doing all that you can.. I hope for your children, your W, and you that the messy process of D goes as smooth as possible... Remember this while going through it... nobody wins....not all battles are worth winning... Focus on your children and take care of yourself.... You know how to contact me if you ever need to chat...
Update:
I guess I am keeping my pattern of not posting very often. Since I am now divorced I guess I really don't belong in this forum anymore. I guess I will move along once this one locks up on me.
As for me I am doing well. I think I have adjusted to being a single Dad... The thing about it is that I am constantly adjusting. One of the things that I slip up with the most is being extra sensitive to my girls. I believe that I am learning, but, I do know that I am doing all that I can.
This past weekend DD5 became DD6. I threw her a bowling party with all her friends. There was me and 15 kids and a lot of energy. Fun was had by all, but the most important thing is that I did not lose any kids. It is weird doing this type of stuff on my own, to pull something like this off in the past my X would have done most of the heavy lifting with help from me. Now it is all me.
DD6 is doing great in school. I just recieved her report card and the marks were stellar. It still amazes me how fast she is learning. She is now recieving recognition for being an accelerated reader for her grade...
DD3 is doing as well as anyone can expect. I think the D has still affected her the most. She now is at the stage of life where she prefers her Daddy.... Which I cannot complain about... This has really been more aparrent over the last few weeks. When my X has come by to pick up my girls, she runs off and hides. Once I find her she just says, "No mommy house..I stay at Daddy's house". I wish she didn't have to go.. I just grab her give her a big hug and kiss, then try and reassure her that I love her and I will miss her, but will see her soon.
Like I said as for me I am doing good. I am starting to get a little restless with my job and might be looking for a change. I have a couple good possibilities, but I need to weigh the pro's and con's of making a switch with my custody schedule. I haven't starting dating....though everyone is trying to set me up with someone....
I guess I should give you all an update about my X. She is still with Dr. Adultery.... He is now going to functions with my XIL's. So I guess I have been officially replaced.
That is it for now. I hope everyone is doing well.
