Called a lawyer today because I want to protect myself from H's crazy antics and I want to do whatever I can to keep kids from OW. I am not concerned that she would harm them but it is not healthy and honestly I want to do whatever I can to break this cycle of dysfunction. H will be ticked if I get a temporary order set in place but I guess he needs to deal with reality. He made his bed now he can lie in it.
Beautiful day. Treated myself to ice cream for lunch now soaking up the sun watching D play soccer. S had an out of town soccer game so H took him to that. Very relaxed right now. Need to hang onto these zen moments.
WH it sounds like you had a good day. I found speaking with an L or two to be very empowering. Just keep in mind that when DB'ing talks about detaching, it means not worrying about how your H will feel when you take an action. So, don't worry about him getting ticked about the temporary order. It's okay to acknowledge that this is how he may act but you cannot base your emotional wellbeing on his reactions to the order. Just stay in mama bear mode and protect your kids - that's what matters right now.
