Thanks. Apparently both W. D and D's therapist want D17 out of the house, and I must say, I agree for a variety of reasons. She's either going to do well at school or blow this golden opportunity for a great career (she wants to teach special education). She has no idea about the cost of anything, but she's got a deli job now making $10 an hour (CT's cost of living is STUPID!)
Since I got back, I have not communicated with W. at all. She sent in the $300 to reserve D17's place at school, and I'm sure she had it figured out from jump street how to pay for this, but needed to painfully and continuously remind me that "I gave no thought" to how to fund this.
My thought would be to bank the 10.8K TAX free money I sent her monthly and not divorce, but "we have to get a divorce FOR THE KIDS SAKE" was her answer when I told her yet again, this divorce is so unnecessary.
This is what makes my blood boil. We have to now run two households at such a critical time. I researched and sent in a number of scholarships, and sent more home to D17, who told me that she's too tired to fill them out after working from 9Am to 4PM! Incredibly brutal schedule. That encompasses about one-third of my wok day, but some kids, like her, are so clueless! I told her to do one a day.....Ugh!
Thanks..... I think I have DB BB overload. That's why I haven't been here as often as usual.
I MUST SAY AGAIN IN CLOSING THANK YOU TO ALL OF YOU WHO IN A KIND WAY CONTINUED TO TELL ME TO WAKE UP AND START WORRYING ABOUT ME. I WOULD PROBABLY BE GOING BACK TO A REFRIGERATOR BOX (AND STILL MAY AFTER ALL OF THIS IS OVER)
Hill: My Bronze Star is my end of tour award. No valor involved, but super-meaningful to me.
