Well onto another week of DB'ing and looking forward to the month of November!
The W filed a little over 2 weeks ago and I still have not been served yet. I nor she has said a word about D or R since the initial hit so I'm just looking at this "limbo time" as more time for me to hang onto my L retainer and get out and have some more GAL in the name of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness!
Had an amazing weekend at the track - over 150 members that I've known for many years, but have not seen for well over six months now. I was completely overwhelmed to the point of embarrassment with the compliments of my "New Me" - my new physical condition, clean shave'n, no glasses, new hair style and most importantly my new attitude - it's even hard to put it down here as I'm not a self promoter in the least. I had to re-introduce myself to almost everyone there!
It's amazing to me how the new "Nice Dave" was received by everyone, invites across the country and even abroad, living arrangements if needed and omg I can have a new date every weekend from now until hell freezes over, personally set up by my close friends without even asking!
I have to say that this was the most self-confidence inducing weekend I've had in 25 years. This is who I should have been all along and I am so glad I found ME! It's THE wake up call I think everyone in LBS land needs to have - if you really dedicate yourself to quality of life changes for yourself you will find a happiness in all the dread you've been dragged through - honestly I can say that it's made this trip into my own private hell a journey that I know now I had to take.
I'm looking forward to a weekend away with S14 and will meet up with S22 while away, S14 really looks up to S22 so hoping they can talk and ease some of S14 attitude towards me - not side taking at all, just I am dad first and foremost to him always.
Following weekend is a 3 day trip doing the dirt bike thing with D16 and friends - invite is open for the W and S14 to come as well, haven't heard one way or the other on that - will have to ask W by Wednesday this week if she's planning on coming, have to finalize the accommodations based on how many are going.
W did inform me that she was not sure about taking the FT swing shift job offer she has on the table - if she takes it it helps me with custody in the future, if she doesn't it helps me with spousal support in the future as well - kind of a win-win or should I say less lose - less lose situation for me. Just add it to my head scratching with her intentions - when I think about it which is way way less than usual - refreshing really.
Well all for now and thanks everyone for your support!!
