My situation #9

[steady]

Journaling:

My W asked me on Mon if it was ok for her to go out Tues night with her girlfriends from work. It's the same crew that went to the concert on Fri. It was one of the other girls' birthday so they wanted to go out to dinner after work. I told her it wouldn't be a problem at all.

So my W called me around 3:30 yesterday and asked me to pick the kids up in the parking lot of the restaurant/bar. She picked them both up at scool. I met her there and took the kids to Best Buy and I bought myself a laptop. Then the three of us ate dinner at Uno's. We didn't get home till around 7pm so I got the kids ready for bed. I sang to my D and then watched a little TV with my son - he's funny because he likes watching the Discovery Channel and the Cooking channel. So we watched the show about crab fishing in the Northwest.

After that I put him to bed. My W got home around 8:30. She told me the restaurant was really quiet and they had a good time. I told her I was glad she enjoyed herself. She said she couldn't reschedule her lawyer until April 20th but he told her if we could get some details on a sep agreement together then he can look at it. I told my W my lawyer is going to put an offer together and send it to her L.

She asked me what was going to be in it and I told her the L is putting it together. Then she said, "Well they usually ask you what you want." I said he does this stuff all the time - I talked to him for a little bit and he told me he'd put something together. Then she asked if I got a copy of it if I could share it with her in case her lawyer doesn't call her. I told her I would. We chatted a bit about my work day and a bit about her day. She told me one of her girlfriends commented that I was very handsome. I told her that my SIL's girlfriend said the same thing last week when I went to the movies with my brother.

This morning I got up and did the normal morning routine. Made lunch for the kids, emptied the dishwasher, made the coffee, etc..
