New Me - Will WAW ever notice?

[Kakatal]

Just going to get back to living for today with my kids.

And that Kevin is all you can do and all that you should be doing for quite a while. Live for today, live for them and most importantly live for you.

Your W is not your responsibility. Be civil to her and treat her with respect but that is it. Its just business from here on out. Kids and finances, nothing more, nothing less.

I was doing well just got caught up in her behavior change towards me. Hopes went skyward & clouded my judgment, especially when it came to OM status in her life. She wants to be free of me so go fly away - won't keep her trapped anymore.
W is trying to get credit everywhere she can & getting denied.

Her life is going to collapse around her & I will not be there to rescue her from it any longer. Like I said before "wish I could help but nothing I can do for you." I had paid off the balance on her 1 credit card which she has now already run back up to 2/3 the limit. Fought with her grandparents who gave her money for her last car payment. Reality check for her is underway as well as one I just got.

She called me at work to confirm where to exchange kids today after I get out of work. Said she called her 1 credit card company to request a credit line increase & was denied. I just did a "uh huh" as a response - wanted to acknowledge that I was listening. W sounds very down in conversations today.

My kids need me to keep it together & move on so thanks again for keeping me focused on what I do have control of - my own happiness & my kids.

Taking them to friends tonight to watch MNF. Tomorrow have the annual HOA meeting - last one for me as a board member so w will have to watch kids until late. Told w that Applebees has a promotion where kids eat free Tues night since I realize she will have to provide dinner for them. Or she can just cook something at house - her choice.

Going to continue to make things as easy as possible for her when it comes to the kids since it is in their best interest & mine. If w needs to keep kids at house to watch them, no problem with me. She wants to use food in house to cook for them, fine also.
