LWB,

I've never posted to you either, well, I don't think so. :-)

I am glad you told your D's like you did. Better than how mine separation/divorce started. My EX moved out while my D's were at school and I was at work. They came home to find a bunch of stuff and their mother gone.

It would have been nice to have a club like that for my D's.

Well, keep up the positove attitude. That will help your D's seeing you in a good place.

TD.

I am glad you told your D's like you did.

I know myself, and I would have been a complete wreck had I told them anytime sooner. But see, our lives are crazy. xH and I are both federal law enforcement officers, and our schedules are insane, us both being on call, working odd hours (you should see our custody agreement, it basically says "Parents will work out on a daily basis" lol). So, the girls are used to just being with one of us, being shuffled a bit, last minute changes.

Our crazy schedules were the ONLY reason we could keep the divorce from them for this long. In any other case, the kids are going to have to find out immediately.

Journaling:

xH has not stayed here in over a week. Its amazing. It feels so good to have the space from him, I can't even tell you. I heard a 'bump' in the night a few nights back, and it was the first time I was scared, being in the house alone. But I know (hope!) Mama Bear would do all I could to protect the girls by myself if the bump turned out to be human.

2 whole days off with D6! I am in heaven!!!

Putting in for a day position at the office. Fingers crossed!!!

Enjoy your special time with D6! Sounds great.

S3 has no preschool tomorrow, so I'm taking the day off too. It'll be some good father-son time for us.

And I've got a prayer in for ya' on the new position. Good luck.

Hugs and blessings.

Hi lwb!!

I'm keeping my fingers crossed extra tight that the day position comes through at work. I know it might take away some time with the girls at school, but it would be nice overall.

Glad you had a great time at the kids parties. I had my first "room mom" experience last Friday and I had a blast. The kiddies were all so cute.

Thanks for the recent email too. I'll shoot back another one to you soon.

Take care. I'm thinking about you.

Oh,...a song that makes me think of you....if you can ever find it, maybe on YouTube. It's called "Lucky" by Melissa Etheridge. Give it a listen if you can.
