Thanks everybody! I hope everyone had a great Christmas.

Whew! I have been so busy this week. I actually left work sick last Friday. It kind of hit me all the sudden and I didn't even think I was going to make it home. It only lasted about a day though so that's good. I took off Monday and Tuesday....now back at work today.\:\( At least it is Friday! There is NOBODY here today!

I talked to MIL on Tuesday. They always do Christmas Eve morning for the family. A little sad to think that I was not going to be there. I was there last year as xh and I were reconciling. I guess OW was there this year. I didn't ask and I didn't dwell on it. Just tried to keep myself busy. I made a conscious decision not to let the situation get me down.

My mom had a bit of a breakdown on Christmas Eve. My dad left 5 years ago and at times it still gets to her. I think the fact that he was spending Christmas with his new wife and her kids was getting to her. She kept saying "I just can't believe he is spending Christmas with STRANGERS!" I know how she feels and I have not really seen her break down like that. It was sad, but I just tried to keep her mind off of it.

XH paid the insurance this mont...only 2 days late this time. He paid too much but that's ok...I'll take it as pain and suffering. I actually didn't know he had paid it since he put the check in a different place than usual. I sent him a not so nice email...and as soon as I hit the send button my mom called and said she found the check. So then I sent him another email. I was pretty mean in my first one. Oh well.

Still haven't had time to take pictures of the apartment but I will definitely post some on FB this weekend.
