BBJ - Sorry about the tears! Some parts of this situation just plain suck... I like your thoughts about the wine... smile

Jeff - I'm trying! I think you're right about the coach. He's kind of kick-as$ like that, anyhow... Told the same little boy (during the game, loud enough for us all to hear). "Bobby, MEN don't cry in soccer! Suck it up!" Guess S10 is willing to give him something to cry about! LoL



UPDATE

Some things packed up...
Not leaving me laundry anymore... (YA GET IT NOW, HUH?)
Sleeping in the pub, now that D19 has taken over the guest room...

Yesterday, we (as a family) took D19 out for her birthday for lunch, and gave her gifts... This all went fine...

Then, H took S10 to his away soccer game, and D19 and S13 went home to do homework.

I had the best time I have had in a REALLY long time after that. I went to see Fergie's pipe band play in a parade... Just amazing!!! Really fun band members, too. I think I made some new friends! (Note, none come close to looking as good as him in a kilt! No - what's that word, Ferg? - up-kilt viewings, though. DARN!) If he'll let me, I'll post some pics to the alt...

After that, I came home, and took S13 to summer basketball game. His foot is holding up pretty good. They won!

We got home fairly late, and H tried to engage me several times. I am not answering/acknowledging anything to/from him, unless it is about the kids. This am, I planned on asking him, in person, if he had retained an attorney, and what his thoughts are... (If he hasn't, he had better, because the papers are coming from me...) If I go ahead and let him file, my L will ask for attorney fees. So, if he will, I think I'll let him... It could save a TON of money, that I'm not sure I'll have later. I may have to swallow my need to zing him to save THOUSANDS... It may be worth it. I'm happy. I'm strong. I'm confident. I've found what it looks like on the other side.

OK, I HAVE to get busy this am!!!

The average woman would rather have beauty than brains, because the average man can see better than he can think.
