Thanks guys!

You know it just hit me yesterday how silly this whole "I keep running into XH' situation is.

The fact is that he and I enjoy the same things - we have the same interests. That's why we liked each other in the first place.

And so, we keep turning up at the same places - the same sports events, the same movies, the same cafes, shops, etc.

I know this is partly because of 'habit', but also it's a reflection of what attracted us to each other in the first place.

Just adds another dimension to the feeling that this is all so 'wrong'.

Oh well....

One other thing.

Not having any money has sure made me and the kids appreciate every little thing so much more.

For me the taste of a latte is real special now - ditto for a beer. (ah, the little things in life!)

For S14, getting some new clothes for winter (a hoodie & jeans). The poor kid hasn't stopped telling me how grateful he is.

I don't think any of us will ever take anything for granted again.

And that has to be a good thing.
