Hi folks!

I started out intending to write a great big update ... but honestly, it’s beautiful here and I just don’t feel like being long winded, lol (zip it Mach!) ...

Here are a few tidbits...

  • I’m moving, in short, the house I was in was privately financed and the guy hasn’t been paying the mortgage with the money I’ve been depositing every month ... silver lining is I can get out from under this pig now (there was no equity anyway) and get a smaller, more manageable place.
  • kids are great and happy to be back in school (for the most part!)
  • I’m doing up my divorce petition and filing as soon as I have it ready.
  • I’m back to work after having half the summer off ... ugh ... lol
  • StbxH and GF have bought a house, kids are excited to be moving ... twice! Lol.
  • I have a wonderful BF (3 mos now) who continues to amaze and impress me - without trying! Lol. He had his own checklist of what he wanted in a partner/R and he’s very committed to it. So far, we’re a really good match. :o) We’re having a blast getting to know each other, and enjoying every minute of it!

Well ... and as Cadet has pointed out ... it’s my 37th Birthday! laugh

I have a lot of feelings today as I reflect on the last year or so .... mostly, I am just grateful!

Grateful to be waking up on this side of the grass!
Grateful for all of my friends and family!
Grateful for my children!
Grateful for my health!
Grateful for my BF and the fun we have!
Grateful for having been given an opportunity, and a challenge, to become the woman I’ve always wanted to be!

Thank you all for being part of that journey!

Love,
PEI
