Hi MJ..just trying to get back into routine. I think the GAL thing is the hardest. Until now I think being a mom n wife was what defined me. Sure u can understand that? My boys keep me busy. My H basically does nothing w them other then Xmas which was to impress the new gf. Sat he missed S8 bball game. Then made second half of s11 game. That's his big contribution to their weekend.

Sun he was supposed to take them sledding but when my s8 called him he was busy n there was a girl talking to him. So that was the end of it. I am invited to a party next sat so I'm going alone. A little nervous but still trying to GAL!! My biggest issue right now is the house. W no financial help I can't do much. I live in NJ n prices are so high here. I can't afford my mortgage or rent if he never contributes.

Sounds like we are both trying to put out best foot forward and make the coming year much better then the last. It's great u have the other gymnastic moms to help u! I'm trying to ask a little more from friends n neighbors bc I'm finding it's just too hard to do everything by myself. My family is about 50 mi away n not overly helpful. My sisters help when they can.

definitely open your own account!! Good move. I didn't at first n my H was stealing from me. It's also the first step toward moving ahead. How is your daughter doing?? Has he seen her at all for the holidays?
