Gypsy, its so sad, but I think my H was checking out too when OW came along, and boom! that sealed the deal. H was going through the motions, but here's the deal, and my complaint: He never ever told me he was so unhappy, never once tried to fix, just ran. And ran fast.
I have been going back and forth on alimony too. UGH BLECKY.
((Gypsy)), Hi sweetie, how was your evening. I'm psyched I just finished my unit on neurology. Whoo Hoo ! I'm wiped out. I may crawl in bed soon. I need summer to end, so my family can get back on a schedule, you know, kids in their room at 9 pm, instead of up til midnight because "it's summer mom".
hugs
