Mulesqb - A Day in Court

[mulesqb]

Hey FIB - How are you?? Sorry - I ended up playing hookie on Fri with S15 and playing golf until baseball started.

One day...when he is a man...you two will go for a walk...and either he'll have questions...or you will want to open up with him. One day, I will do the same with my kids if they ask. THEN...is when they learn more deeply what kind of man you REALLY are. THEN...they will see the ludicrous behavior of your wife...and the piece of CRAP your neighbor was.

I had a talk with my dad yesterday. He said that S15 really opened up to him the other day and told him he'll never, ever forget what I tried to do for the family. There was other stuff but I 'm at work and don't want to get emotional.

I can tell you that I really do feel good right now. I'm in a good place mentally. I attended a parenting apart class last week and it really helped. They gave me a few techniques to use when she is doing all this crap. It will help me not bother with it.

Someday - if she does wake up - she will realize what she missed in these kids' lives. Things you can't get back. I can't imagine how that will make a sane mother feel.

FIB, you know how I tortured myself over serving her. There is no doubt in my mind now that it was the right thing to do. I'm getting healthier and healthier by the day. And so are the kids if she would just wait on the next door thing until we get out of here - it actually doesn't bother me. The initial shock was the closure I needed.

Thanks for posting my dad's words. I have used them many times over the years.

I can't even fathom......I just can't...how the f#$k do people do such selfish horrendous things that hurt their kids.

That is where we lost our M. I tried to support her with this stuff but couldn't keep it up.

Proud.

Thnks so much! It means a lot to me.

Strength and Honor.
