Today went to see the FIL as it's his 70th. The STBXW was there and I managed to hold myself together and completely ignore her. I gave the FIL his card, wished him my best, said hello to the Uncle in law, and then made my excuses to leave. Proud of myself for doing it, as it would've been easier to drive away again when I saw her car. She was shouting after me as I left the house. Obviously wanted to say something to me, but as far as I'm concerned at the moment, she couldn't say anything of use as she's still living it up with OM.

Then went to see the surrogate MIL up the road as we have regular cuppas these days. She said the STBXW was looking as rough as she's ever seen her. Apparently at the 70th party at the weekend she had unwashed hair, no make up, awful outfit and was pale, pasty and quiet. Bring on the karma! The STBXW still hasn't been to see her (she still has the MIL's pearls which she wore for our wedding) but apparently they will meet sometime next week. The STBXW gave the MIL the strongest hug ever and looked so sad that she thought the STBXW was going to tell her she'd made a horrible mistake and could she help her sort it out.

We'll see what happens next week. Watch this space! I'm not even sure anymore I'd entertain reconciliation with her. She's got an awful lot to prove first.

I am in a great place right now. I have the Life of Riley, not them. My job is great, my social life is great, I caught sight of myself in the mirror in the lift today at work and am looking good.

The karma bus is coming!

Reality is that which, if you don't believe in it, doesn't go away.
