Divorced #5. And I think Im getting it..

[Mrs D]

Thanks Arsene.
I am on day 3 without contacting him other than about C. And that was Sunday. I took Carnacs advice, placed it in my head that there was no reason for contact unless it had to do with C. Even last night when he walked C up to the door when he dropped him off, I sat on the couch working, didnt go to the door like I normally would have. C came in the house and X was gone. And I was ok with it. Seriously ok.

Now that X isnt working any OT, he picks C up from school on his nights, then drops him at the house. He normally just drops him off, but last night he walked to the door with him. I do pick C up on Wednesday nights after therapy. This week is going to be the first week where I have C for the weekend, Friday night through Sunday night. After X dropped C off last Sunday, I told him that I thought we needed to have a scheduled time of dropoff on Sundays. He dropped him off at 9 AM so he could go biking again, instead of spending the day with C. So we agreed that Sunday nights at 8 is when he will be dropping C off. He wont get to see C on Sundays until he's laid off from work. Then Ill drop him off at that time. AFter tomorrow night, X wont see C until Monday night. 4-1/2 days without seeing C. It will be interesting for sure.

Anywa - still feeling pretty strong today about not contacting him. So yay me! Ill update later when I tell you all I made it through the day!! Happy Tuesday.
