Today was good. Kids played with friends, I cleaned the house up a bit and played on the computer. Even watched a movie on TV. The weather was crappy, so it was nice to be inside.
x is with his brothers and dad, along with others, at BIL's "bachelor party" camping weekend. Dad was having a hard time going, but some of his old friends would be there, too, so he planned to have a cushion between him and x. They aren't surprised that x put an offer on the house with gf; just disgusted.
D played with gf's D today; skank was out and her stbx had the kids in the house. I checked online and her divorce is stalled. Last date on court record was 7/30, with no future dates scheduled. So the $ for the down payment didn't come from that. bff from college guessed that x raided his retirement. Or got a private loan from someone.
He works in the Bronx in NYC - wonder if it was from a shark...?
What a strange, twisted mess they are living. I just want to make sure that my kids end up ok. Still not sure what to do about my S and her D; I'll have to face that when and if they get a house and tell S that he has to sleep next door to her.
I found a DivorceCare support group locally that I might try to go to tomorrow. It is at the church my S has been going to with his friend. Might be an ok place to make new connections and friends who understand...
