Sandycay, you have definitely found a keeper! That is so awesome the way he stepped in and did so much over the weekend. And for his friends and family to appreciate you and realized you make FFG happy...sounds great all around.
Ouch on the dodgeball injury! Funny how it is always something random...when I tore pretty much everything in my foot/ankle 2 yrs ago I was just rushing/fast walking up a sidewalk to sub at a middle school and hit a patch of ice. Like you I tried to just brush it off but within 30 minutes I was in tears from the pain and couldn't teach...
Just follow the docs advice,do the PT when you can and try to be patient. I HATED the crutches, like you said you can't do anything with them, carry things, etc! Big time pain in the butt...but by the time summer is here you should at least be able to be out doing some form of exercise....it will come, just not as fast as you want!
We are signing at 1pm.... together.... in the lawyer's office. Blech... I was hoping to do it apart but in order to get it done my L is coming to work on her day off ... to just get it done.
STBXH drove the crazy train into the wall Wednesday night and I let her be privy to the VM messages he had left and the 5 hours of crazy crap he pulled and my L lit a fire under the QDRO L to get the stuff pressed thru. So all the QDRO is done but one but it will be in the agreement and at this point it's worth the financial risk to just "get her done".
So relieved but dread the moments in there with him. I've only seen him a few minutes here and there for drop offs since November.
So sad that it has come to this. For him, what a loss.

Back from the L office. Everything is notarized and signed. It will be taken before the judge on Wednesday... so it's sorta final?
Tough moments here and there but thankfully I was able to not go "there". He said "there are three people over there who can't stand me" when referring to me and the kids. I said " Now, what a minute, I have never said I can't stand you. I am not the one who left. It was you that said you couldn't live with married to me anymore" Tears in his eyes and everything. Weird.... I thought this is what he wants ... he signed everything without question, without legal representation, and didn't look at anything but the signature page.
I am sad for him. He said "well, your happy right now aren't you?" I answered him " happy is relative to how you perceive it, so yes I choose to be happy because to be anything else would be pointless." It seems he wants me to be as miserable as he is. Why? He said I deserved better than the way he was treating me.
Uggh!
Oh well, FFGs firestation invited me to dinner at the firehouse, I think they all know what today was going to be.. so that was sweet. So I'll go hang out with 12 Hot FFG's tonight and watch them cook and clean in their uniforms. Maybe I'll talk them into sliding down the pole for me. LOL

Very strange. My X was similar towards the end. Seemed like she was almost in disbelief that I was willing to move on in a happy way. And she admitted to eating something I told her early on that she would be eating...
