Cry a river, build a bridge, and get over it

Thanks guys!

Well look what she wrote back: "Yah, I found that out when I called the insurance this morning and they said that I no longer had coverage with them. Thanks for the heads-up."

Nice! And then I see people that don't pay or do what they're legally asked to do.

In all fairness I can understand from her pov that she's upset but the new insurance took effect today! Sep 1st! I'd already left the new ins card for her at DD's school. She knew the ins was changing months ago and if it was so important why did she not ask when it'll take effect. It's always someone else's fault.

I'll respond to the L stuff when I've had some time to clear my mind because the legal stuff seriously feels overwhelming.

Got a call during lunch today from an old friend from NorCal his wife's leaving him...sigh! I swear there's something in the water. This can't be normal. He's apparently been posting here in the Newcomer's section but I didn't ask his name or thread I don't want to intrude. This is his place to safely share things anonymously. So I talked to him for almost an hour and he was very grateful and told me that I resonated the advice he's been getting here already and it was good to hear it in layman's terms and some concrete things he can do to take control of his life. Among other things he said he's been trying to go to the gym but can't, he doesn't know what to do. I told him he needs to build a routine or structure so he already knows what needs to happen that day or week as opposed to waking up depressed and trying to figure out what to do to keep busy. Been there done that. It's weird to see one of my good and close friends go through this.

And the WASs! I swear! they must follow the same script. In fact, I'm convinced they're a cult, they meet in secrecy, take oaths, sacrifice baby kittens, hum and sway in symmetry then spread out into the world and wreak havoc.
