For the Guy with Kids and a WW 24

[hopeful4her]

Hey guys, I'm still alive.

Enjoying life and having as little contact with the wife as much as I can.

Still.

Only kids stuff, no nicey emails to her and when I see her when I pick up the kiddo's, I don't even acknowledge her. At least until she tells me hello first or tells me goodbye.

Last week was her week. She had D7 call me on Wed evening to let me know about an Open House at her school. I went to pick up D7 early, since I got out of work early. The wife had sent me an email asking if I was going after all. She said she was meet us there if I was getting her early. She ended up calling me while we were at the school already. She asked if I minded if she just went to her apartment and she'll start dinner.

"Do you mind if I just go home to the apartment and I'll get dinner ready. Just come after and y'all can eat dinner."

"Just go home. I'm here already. I'll get D7 back afterwards to eat."

When I get to the apartment, the kids come and tell me hello. I just stayed at the entrance. We were all having fun and they were hanging on me. The wife looks at me. Again, I hadn't acknowledged her.

"Are you hungry?"
"No, thanks."
"I made roast."
"Thanks, but no."

She started to ask questions about the nights events and I told her.

Told the kids goodbye and left for home.

I was supposed to pick up all the kids last night. Talking to D12 around 7, she was feeling bad with really bad allergies. I asked her if she just wanted to stay at her moms one more night and she said yes. I talked to the wife and she told to just leave all the kids one more night. I can get them after school Monday(today).

I let them stay, so I went out. Again. Been going out a lot. Movies, dinner, Bday parties, hooking up with old friends. Have gone out every night the past 4 nights. Have already made plans for this coming weekend with the girls and have already made plans the weekend after that. Daddy time. Then two weeks after that for Fiesta.

Strangely, staying off of DB has helped.

The wife called me this morning to let me know that D12 actually stayed home from school because she still felt sick. Then she called around lunch time to let me know that she has a taker for the last pup that I was trying to give away. I didn't take the call, but when I called to check on D12, the wife was at the apartment making her some lunch during HER lunch. I ended up talking to her to ask about the pup. So we did talk a little about that.

And then I end the conversation, like I have been doing when I have to talk to her on the phone.

I have dropped the rope. I know that I have said that I don't want her anymore, but those times, it was said in anger. A reaction. Then I was right back, giving of myself.

Not this time. I really feel done with her.

And I feel good about it, because its to my benefit.

She's the one that loses.

Thanks for checking on me, folks. I wish I had time to check on my friends today, but I don't. Maybe tomorrow. Work has been keeping me busy too.

And thats a good thing. I know that once I start to look in on someone's thread, I can't stop reading and there goes my day.

For the peeps that have my email, keep 'em coming.

Blessings to you all. I still pray for EVERYONE on here.

Since my accident, I feel like I have been given an opportunity to take advantage of living life my way, so thats what I'm doing.
I am a blessed man.

Oh yeah, I do get your responses on here sent to my email.
