Thanks for all of the suggestions and support.

Thursday night I spoke with H regarding spending more time with the kids in the month of February. He picked a couple of more days in February that he would like to have the kids. It worked with my schedule so I said okay.

Friday night I went out dancing. I had a good time and honestly didn’t think about H the entire time.

Saturday was S6’s basketball game. He did great. H was there but I only spoke to him for a few seconds.

Sunday I woke up with a migraine headache so called H to see if he would mind taking the kids for the day. He said that he could only take the kids for an hour or two because he had plans. I am guessing his plans include watching football all day. I said that’s okay, I will make do. So I made myself comfy on the couch all day with a pillow over my head while the kids watched way too much TV. I was pretty much out of commission until about 7:00 last night.

Then this morning I get an email at work from H. Feeling better?
WTF? Why does he even care? I am not even going to bother with a reply.

I have an appointment with L today. It doesn’t look too good for me. I have way more in retirement savings built up. We make about the same in salaries, so no alimony. We are splitting the kids 50/50 so no child support. The house will have to be put on the market and sold. In looking at the houses in the general area, I don’t think I can afford to stay in the same school district. It makes me sad. I love the neighborhood, schools, etc.

Well enough for now.
