My wife told me last night that the legal separation papers will be ready this week, and she hasn't changed her mind. I said OK. She asked what I am going to do, sign them, bring to a lawyer, fight her them, ignore them, etc. I said I hadn't decided yet and would need to see them. Did my best 180 I hope. I have to admit between this situation, the sale of the house, finances, my job/career, my son's drug issues, my younger daughter's crying now that she's hearing more and catching on to the seperation, I feel like my whole world is collapsing on top of me. I guess just face it all like a man, let the chips fall where they may, keep my wits about me as best i can, pick myself up, and show her after all of this, I can smile and be happy and keep moving on in my life. I hope I am strong enough...... seems like a steep and overwhelming mountain to climb right now. Feel about as hopeless as I ever felt in my life.......
