CBK - Sorry about your W moving out. Keep your chin up. I actually feel better when my W is gone.
Addie - sounds like some good news in your sitch.
I am really down today. I recieved notice of our 1st court date in Mid June. It is info gathering session and I knew it was coming. It just adds another layer of reality and completeness to the D. My W was overjoyed about it last night and wanted to go thru all the details. It was nice to see her happy about something. I told her I needed time to read and understand it before talking about it.
We barely spoke yesterday. A little conversation about work and kids (No R/D). She made dinner and I played with kids and went to bed early. We are going to separate kid events tonight and I am trying to avoid her till she leaves for the Holiday Weekend (Friday Afternoon) as much as I can.
I cannot kick the depressed state that I am now in and don't want to interact with her until I get back to balance. At least I get 4 days off work. I keep praying and DBing and doing the right things. I keep looking for signs of hope but there is really nothing but patience and faith at this point.
She just called on a kid issue and I was upbeat and validating. Whew. I even got a "thank you" and a "dear". If only that actually meant something.
I would love to hear from Smart Cookie What did I do and Sandi2...... Not that I don't love hearing from you two.
