Just checked my own thread and found it locked and your message on it Kat. Rodanthe sounds good if you're up for a sad movie. Yeah, I'm pretty broke, once I get a job then I'll have money but no time!!!
Had fun today. D9 and I ran some errands after school, and then the art club. The teacher is so sweet and took the girls from the club (no boys for some reason!) to a local coffee shop that just opened. It's great, the girls had hot choc. and cookies and I had capuccino. Yum! Oh, I told the teacher we might have H take D9 as he was to pick her up tonight and we got home at 6:30 and he wasn't there, usually gets there close to 7. D9 wanted to go meet her friends so we did, and then I called H when we got there and sat down and D9 told him where we were (1 minute from the house where he was). We stayed about 10 minutes, she didn't know if he was coming to get here or not, and then left, way before the other girls. H had just started to walk there and we walked the last 50 feet with him. He is really so self-absorbed. He hasn't seen D9 since Tuesday night for a couple hours, and he was on the phone with a guy friend talking about doing ultramarathons which he's been doing. Blah blah blah kept talking to his friend for at least 5 minutes while we walked home and he kept talking to his friend rather than D9. I was thinking how rude! but truthfully he's always been like that, on the cell phone or texting someone and that's been for several years even before the A (I think).
Ok, should I email H and explain why we were at the coffee shop with her friends rather than there on time? Or just not say anything? I want to be polite, but no more doormat stuff if I can help it! Karen
The man doesn't have the decency to talk to his daughter and you want to explain where you were??? NO WAY CHICKIE!! You have been so good trying to keep Roger in line and then you start to lapse yourself!!
Why don't we get the funny one Yoyo suggested and we can get the sad one later. I have enough crud going on to keep me crying for weeks.
So what happened to the consignment job? Was she wacko and not really running a store or what?

Well, I already knew she was wacko shortly after meeting her, but she doesn't exactly run the store, or try to sell stuff or anything. She just doesn't have much of a business, and she doesn't like to sell her stuff (OCD or something). She's super sweet though, also going through D now. We still go by to visit every week. She's got a cute little puppy she got and keeps there! Last time we were there, there was a customer there, and D9 says in a REALLY loud voice, "Oh, that's wonderful, she's finally got a customer" or something like that b/c she was so happy for her! Explained how we might not want to advertise that out when we left!!! Karen
I think I'm doing good. I've realized life is so much less chaotic without H even though I'm job hunting and will have to move! Busy day yesterday doing errands and TKD and stuff. And another busy day today doing more. Saw my C today, I just don't know if I need therapy like I once did, I'm feeling pretty confident and healthy, but with the move and job-hunting and D coming soon, I guess I'll keep going for a little while, and of course the kids too. Sometimes I wish I could fast-forward thru this year and be over all this stuff; hopefully with a job, new place, and the D over. But life happens so quickly I guess it'll happen soon enough.
Kat, I'll visit your thread later when I get a chance, and the movie came in today so anytime you want to see it is fine with me this week or next or whenever you have time! Karen
I know it might be later this week just because of my full plate. Boy I will sure be glad when I can see the plate underneath!
I am looking forward to a movie night though so we will have to make sure we have popcorn and maybe actually give others a chance to get it if they want to join in. But you know it is ok if it is just us, because that is how we started this anyhow.

I thought I'd visit your thread for a change. You seem to be doing well. You give me hope. I don't want my marriage to end, but I can see that if does life will go on. I know it will take time, but I see that I will make it somehow. I hope your house/job search goes well.
Well, got a cold and it's freezing here, went to 18 or 19 this morning which is pretty cold for FL! H emailed me this am: i just wanted to let you know that if you deside to get a place in (your town) it will have a dramatic effect on our ability to work this all out and avoid depositions and a final hearing. even if you got a place on the west side of (my) town so you could still do things in (your town) it would make a big difference. Honestly, he makes me sick to my stomach. I think he's still thinking he is going to get everything he wants in this divorce, me moving to his town, not paying too much, etc. Does anyone have any thoughts on this??? Another thought is he wants the kids to go to public school (the cheapest for him) and the schools are horrible in my town so that could be a reason for this. I don't like this person at all. Karen
