I'm doing great. My parents, S18, his girlfriend, D14, S13, & S9 & I had a fabulous time last night celebrating S18's b-day & me finishing school.

I'm sleeping better, eating better, & the stress is way down. D14 noticed I was singing to the car radio yesterday, & playing music as I cooked for the party. Both older kids helped clean house without being asked !!! \:\)

The only sad part for S was, H got home late, & missed most of it.

H e-mailed me a very brief summary of IC & told me his next appointment is Thursday.

I'm feeling pretty zen.

I was never meant to be a doormat. It took me years of therapy to become assertive enough to stop his abuse.
