Deployed Soldier/Father needs your help

[Super Girl]

She wouldn't have the 'nads to show up for this.

She might, but who cares? You have a plan in place. Take the papers and put them in your backpack.

As long as you leave the airport with your crotch still sewn in your pants, it's all good.

Now I just gotta do all the things I have said I'm gonna do!!! Ok, now, knowing that I will probably get served, should I still go to my house and stay there? Just want to make sure I handle all of this correctly. I will be there for 3-4 days, then we go on our road trip for 5-6 days, then back home for Christmas-I hope-and then the next few days doing things in town, then back to where I am now. Do I still establish my boundary, if the PI comes back with anything? Also, still stay in the M bedroom? I am thinking yes to all, but want to make sure.

[SoldierDad]

Sad Girl, THAT made me laugh so hard. Thank you!!!

[mindfull]

I am so proud of how you are handling this, SD.

[Super Girl]

I'm glad you're laughing. You need that.

I am definitely not an expert, but I think you should be in your marital home until you have some kind of court order removing you. You have just as much right to be there as she does.

You should also stay in your bed. If she wants to sleep away from you, she can move to another room. Make her do ALL the work.

[Super Girl]

I am so proud of how you are handling this, SD.

Me too. I have a hard time dealing my sitch when my H is just 20 minutes away. I can't imagine the stress when thousands of miles separate you from family.

[Puppy Dog Tails]

Absolutely you stay at your own house. YOU ARE A SOLDIER, RETURNING FROM BATTLE! What, you should leave your castle and camp by the moat???

C'mon, dude . . .

[SoldierDad]

mindfull, thanks, I just keep telling myself, that I have been through so much being in the military, my F dying, 2 combat tours, there really isn't anything she can throw at me, that is any more difficult than what I have been through before. As a matter of fact, this is NOTHING compared to what I have endured over the last 20 plus years. I WILL persevere, I WILL endure, I WILL survive this. It is a phase, a period in my life that is not pleasant, but is manageable. I am in control of ME. I can either sit here in my own PI$$ and $HIT, or I can get off of my pity pot, and start living again. I choose to LIVE.

[Coach]

I WILL persevere, I WILL endure, I WILL survive this.

Push it one step further, "I WILL thrive thru this."

You rock, SD!
