I get a call a 2:30 in the morning. It is from a girl I went to school with. She and her family live in South Dakota. I have not talked to her in at least 17 years. A friend of mine called earlier in the evening saying that she was coming through town and wanted to see me. They were getting together at another friends house. I said that I couldn't, W had a meeting and I was home with the kids and she wouldn't be home until at least 10:30. So she called me a while later and we talked, good to hear from you..... Anyway, mutual friend told her where I lived and she got lost coming to my house and drove around for a couple of hours. I asked what was so important, she said she had to talk to me. I told her how to get to the house, she was pretty close. So we talked from about 3:00 to 6:00 in the morning. Long story short, friend had told her a little of my sitch and she said she is kind of in the same boat. She has told her H she is done, he needs to leave, all the same stuff. She said she's not really done, just want him to fight for the M. Told me to do the same, her H and myself sound like the same person.
It was a great talk with someone on the other side. She reinforced a lot of things that I have learned here. I can't say I'm a lot more optimistic about things, but she gave me some things to think about.
I came in the house and got in the shower and got ready for work. W got up while I was in the kitchen. Got the kids ready for school and got them on the bus. Couldn't really tell if she was more pissy than usual and didn't want to get into anything with kids there and no more that 5 min to talk about it. I don't know if she heard the phone, the car, me going out the door or coming in. I will tell her tonight who it was. W has never met this woman and I'm sure a middle of the night visit will not go over well. I don't care what she thinks. It was almost like a sign that Pigskin has talked about. I haven't heard from her in 17 years and she comes over out of the blue with same sitch and offering advice? Hopefully it means something good.
Just when I think it can't get any more confusing...........
