Hope and heartache

[ClingingToHope]

I must admit there was a small message in it. I had the money. Even after the fact she is getting -- after my contribution -- more than twice as much money as I am, I had the money.

I've always socked money away here, there, everywhere for little emergencies. I can't count how many times that came in handy when we were together.

So I was glad to help.

The other thing I realized is how far away she is from having the money to file for D. Unless she totally surprises me by having the willpower to save the money or her mom pays for it -- doubtful, I think she'd like to see us get back together -- the timing of a D will be totally up to me.

I'll actually have my L retainer saved up by February.

She called tonight and wanted to talk about something, but it was halftime of a high school game I was keeping score of -- for $45 -- and didn't have time to talk.

Not sure what it could be about.

D10 is having her swine flu shot tomorrow at 9:45 a.m. W can't get off work so she asked me. I said yes. Anything for the family.
