I'm doing very well actually. The move went pretty well and though W and I got in an argument over a few things taken and not taken, it settled out. It was hard to say goodbye to my former neighbors on Sunday and I did tear-up in front of them, but I managed to recover pretty well.

Tonight is my 4th night in the new house and the kids are with me after their 1st day of school. They swam in the pool and I had a fantasy football draft. Did ok. We ordered pizza tonight since that would be easy. Had to finish setting-up D's bed and unloaded my "new" used gas grill. It is really nice for only $50. I got it last night after D went back to Mom's place. It was hot last night and she wanted to swim, so I told her to come over and she did. Also ran to the grocery store last night to pick-up stuff for lunches tomorrow.

It seems I am very busy. I don't sit down until late the last few nights and I still have lots of boxes to unpack. Haven't missed W at all. Haven't called or texted except to return hers. Had one e-mail about the kids, but that is it. She did come by to pick-up D last night.

Still lots to do to get cleaned-up and organized around here, but I did get ALL of my stuff out of the old house.

Have to get ahold of my atty to make a proposal on child placement tomorrow. I think I am going to give W my every other Sunday night and ask for some other concession in return. We'll see what the atty says. I just want to get this all settled and figure out what we are going to do with the house. That has now supplanted child placement as my biggest worry. I'd like to have enough $ to be able to make a good down payment on a new place and avoid the mortgage insurance nightmare. Maybe I will just rent for a while and try to save some $ towards a down payment.

Blondie only works on Sunday nights now. Went to see her last Sun, but she was very busy. Maybe will go every sunday and watch some football at the bar and BS with her a little.

Have signed-up for Match.com and plentyoffish, but haven't made any contacts yet. There are some interesting women out there not too far away. We'll see how things go for a while firs though. Don't need anything serious at the moment.

I don't seem to have as many questions or issues to post lately. I guess that is good, since things are settling down, but I can't help but wonder if this is truly the end. Just don't know.

Thanks for checking-in R2C. I think I am doing ok.
