So, for those who might still be interested...

My XW is remarrying. In the next few weeks. She is moving in with her new man this weekend. That is less than 4 months after D was final. The new address is no more or less inconvenient than the old one.

Don't know what's next folks. I am GAL'g - spending lots of time with friends and family. Plans for triathlon are on hold because...

My ski trip ended, on the last day, with a crash and a broken collarbone. Surgery + average insurance = nice bill. I guess they will all get a little over time. I am out of the sling and on the mend. I refuse to act my age, ever.

I am focused on my children. The two youngest (my bio kids) are just going with the flow. She will be homeschooling them again, and they are pretty happy about it. I see them a great deal, and miss them terribly when they are gone.

My SS15 flipped out and threatened to quit doing school, agreed to go back to school, then got in a physical altercation with XW. She put him on a bus to his Dad's house. Not my responsibility, but he has been a part of my family for as long as I have had a family. My heart is breaking for him, as he is hurting, obviously. His Dad even called me to ask what to do. I offered support for SS15, but refused to be drawn into any discussion of XW.

D22 vacillates between furious and disappointed with her Mom. She has agreed to meet the new husband to be, as she wants to get to know the man with whom her siblings will be spending much of their time.

I guess DB is over for me, now. I will continue working on me, and being more deliberate about who I want to be. But concern for XW is all but gone. Part of me will always love who she was, but I know that she can never be that woman again. She is unwell, in my estimation, and will go through this cycle again. New guy is divorced twice, w/ 1 child from each previous marriage. I put the over/under for their M at 3 years.
