Where I focus on charity and prayer

[DifRent]

Had a great night out with a friend who has also been dumped... drinking, eating, seeing a comedy show, drinking again. Almost crashed in her hotel room here in the neighborhood, but thought that would have more impact if my W actually saw my car in the parking lot, which she wouldn't. So... came home instead.

Moving the boys into their apartment in the morning. Because of the sitch with my W, I feel like this whole rite of passage has been stripped of its import, and tarnished. My heart should be breaking ONLY because of the empty nest, not because of this and all the stuff my W is doing to us. They are so excited to move into their new place, but I am so sad to see them leave. Equally sad that odds are good this home won't ever be a home for them to come to again. So much loss in so little time...

This is why after they are settled, I will meet with my Stephen Minister, then go see my mom. And probably cry. So thankful I have such a good mom even at my "advanced" age.
