alien invasion II

[hoosiermama]

I've gone through 3 teens (2 girls and 1 boy) and now it's my last, D16. She is awesome. I wouldn't have it any other way. They have kept me on my toes and then some, but the love one feels for those brats ---- aaaahhhh ---- nothing like it.

How ya doing Hmama?

Thanks! Doing just fine. D13 hasn't morphed into a crazy person just yet, so all is good there. She's in a healing touch class the next 2 days and looking forward to that.

Not doing much db'ing these days. Truth is, it never much mattered if I did it or not because H never would have noticed anyway. At this point, working on GAL'ing, enjoying my daughter, and surviving the impending divorce. And I'm really okay with that. I think H is gone, gone, gone, and while he may eventually come to his senses, I don't believe it's at all likely based upon past patterns. He has run from one thing to another his whole life, leaving whatever isn't fulfilling to him and jumping on whatever else is affirming and good for his ego. While I had hoped that he would grow out of this, there are no signs that he's growing at all. The hurt is gone, except what I feel for my daughter. I turned some sort of corner the first of the year and am finally able to enjoy my life and look forward instead of backwards. A few weeks ago I reconnected with an old friend, now living in another state and in the same stage of the divorce process I am. The mutual support and connection have been very positive for both of us; we both realize there's serious potential in this relationship if we take it very slowly and maturely. But it's also nice to feel a bit like a teenager again.

Life is good. I'd like the next few months to speed by and have the divorce behind me, but they will take their time and I will survive them.
