Another day, she texted me once about getting some clothes back from my best friend that the kids left there last trip. Nothing other than that. NC from her and thats just fine with me.

I have been chatting with a girl on a date site and I know this is going nowhere because she is 5 hours away, but i have a date with her on Sunday. I will visit my parents Fri, Sat and most of Sunday , then I will go on this date. She is beautiful and very funny. Just a little ego boast that a girl this pretty is interested in me. I guess I need a little shot.

I wont tell my boys as I will have them stay with my brother. Maybe a mistake but it has taken my mind off my wife. I talked on the phone with her for 1.5 hours and it went really well. I think I am willing to go on this date because of the likelyhood of this working out is slim to none.

I am still in a place of peace with my ex at the moment. The OM creeps into my head from time to time but I seem to be of the mindset that if she wants to step down and be with him, then it will seriously be her loss down the road.

I did talk to my oldest today about his schooling and why he is so down. He opended up a little, Its not just because OUR family is broken up, but the entire extended family is not close anymore as we used to share all the holidays together and were around each other alot. He said he misses that and that only one person can fix this. (his mother)

I didnt say anthing to that. Just told him I understood how he felt. Things will get better I told him. Just concentrate on your school work.

WE have to leave from here right after school so i have to pack everything and finish laundry.

Things I used to take for granted to be sure. Not that hard really, just different.
