Focused on Me and My Son 2

[Sherman333]

So today I'm down. With all the events over the last few weeks... I've backslide on working out every day (one of my 180s for me). I'm still maintaining my weight, but I don't have the energy lately to get up early or late at night and do it. I've been more focused on spending time with S7 (homework, dinner, etc.). I'm missing having the 2nd person to assist with everything.

Plus I've been waking up a lot at night... worry over what's to come and what can happen with S7. I hate I'm missing out on parts of his life when he's with his mom.

It's still effecting my work a bit too. They've been patient, but this has all been happening so quick. Luckily, who I report to just changed. I know have 1 layer between me and the guy I used to report to... I've been keeping them appraised of the big happenings so that they understand what's going on with me and why I'm off my game. The HR folks have been great. The new boss is understanding as well.

The former boss is obnoxious about some things and always has been - not a real people person. Even told me once in the midst of when this started that I need to learn to compartmentalize better. And when she stated she wanted to move out... his response was "I guess she wants no part of you..." Just insensitive all around. He's even suggesting that the malaise has to end sooner rather than later.

I'm hoping with STBXW out of the house, things will settle down to a new routine. I also need to clean up/put the house in order from her moving out. She left a MESS. Having the house cleaned up would be a huge lift. However, I still have some home improvement projects the lawyer told me to wait on until after the divorce as it would affect the home appraisal. So that's still a disruption too. 6 months of looking at 1/2 done projects... some of which she started... not fun.

Just a general UGH.
