Journaling: In the middle of last week my Son and DIL packed a few items and left to visit her Michigan family. They left their pets, 2 cats, a Puggle, and a Chihuahua in my care. Add my Mastiff to the mix and dog walks become an interesting proposition.

From what I have been able to gather they are having a good visit with her Michigan relatives.

The changes XW needed made on the QDRO have delayed completion of the terms of the D. This has put me in a limbo of sorts as I am still unable to sort out my post D budget. I am living rather conservatively engaging in inexpensive activities while making ends meet. Mortgage and the lion’s share our mutual debt is keeping me conservative. I was the saver so this is easier for me than it could have been.

Examining my motivations caused me to cycle again. This weekend I spent about an hour in deep resentment. I got myself out of it by generating a few endorphins and resolving to treat myself when my budget settles.
