Thanks, labug. I'm working on it, and I have made progress, thankfully. But your right, I've still got plenty of work to do still.

Journalling:
Today is S11's b-day party for the friends and some family members. I'm not looking forward to it, to be honest. I'm pretty sure that everyone who is coming knows about our sitch and since W has turned to her friends for emotional support, she probably loaded 'em up with horror stories about how horrible I am. Luckily a good friend of mine will be here too so that should help neutralize some of the bad juju, lol.

I've been going out a lot lately to this little hole-in-the-wall cafe with a pool table around the corner. I try to make myself scarce in the evenings because otherwise it gets awkward tiptoeing around each other. The owner of the place has taken a shine to me and last night we shot some pool and the breeze for a few hours. Plus he gave me free beer all night, which was nice. He's pretty sympathetic about his sitch, having gone through it once himself. Either that or he's trying to turn me into an alcoholic and make him rich! lol, jk.

Wrarely if ever initiates convos with the excepion of children and logistical-type stuff. I'm feeling kinda neglected. I'm almost looking forward to getting my own place -- or, I should say 'a second place' because W's idea is to find something small where we can switch off every three nights or so with the other person spending three days with the kids. We figure it would be best to try and let the kids stay in their own home and not uproot them every few days. Give them a bit of stability.

So, back to party prepping. Have a great Sunday, everyone.
