Thank you so much ILYNOT and Mutatio, you guys are both great, I have been keeping up with both of your sitch and plan to continue to support you both.

Today is a mixed bag of feelings for me. I am trying to remain strong through this. I have decided to stop living at my mothers to accommodate her needing space. My thoughts are that if she needs the space then she should arrange it herself. I am keeping things civil and cordial.

She has reached out to me today seeing if I can leave work early to take our baby to the DRs, as she has meetings all day till 3:30pm. I have no problem with that, so I am heading out of work early (my kids are my priority).

I woke up missing her and wishing that things were not as they are, but I understand that this is reality and I must remain strong and just push forward. I am going to worry about the right now, not what it was or what it could be.

I came across this quote, which seems to bring me some strength and comfort, I would share it with you both:

“Bad things do happen; how I respond to them defines my character and the quality of my life. I can choose to sit in perpetual sadness, immobilized by the gravity of my loss, or I can choose to rise from the pain and treasure the most precious gift I have – life itself.”
― Walter Anderson

Again, thank you so much for reaching out and helping me through this.
