Journaling, Went to Court for Modification today. Haven't seen my former spouse since her "let's be friends" overture in March six weeks after D when I told her "You ended and shattered our friendship repeatedly in the last year. Friends don't do the things you've done. I do not want to be your friend."(short version.)
Well she was chatty! I was polite and pleasant, but she kept going on and on with courtroom observations and anecdotes, etc. After a long wait for things to start, we were called first and were done literally within 90 seconds.
She was supposed to bring me something today. Left it in her car. "I'm in lot B, you have to pas it on your way out so stop and give it to me there," says I. "No, walk me to my car, it's not far." Okay. She chats the whole two blocks. About everything. We get to her car, she hands me the something, holds onto it and to my hand for a good 2 - 3 seconds as I kept a mild taking it/pulling my hand away tension, looks me straight in the eyes and, smiling, says, "It was really good chatting with you, today, Gardener." I replied, "Goodbye. Be good to yourself, J."
Go friggin' figure.
I don't make assumptions anymore, but the first thought that came to me as I cheerfully, detachedly walked away was, "Be careful what you wish for..."
And tonight, I took my first one-hour yoga class at my gym. What an experience! I exercise almost every day, meditate every night.
But yoga tonight was like the blending, the melding of the two: the breath control, the muscle exertion and correct form, the concentration, the mindfulness. It was absolutely wonderful! I'm hooked.
