Not a chance to get rid of me. I'm afraid you are stuck :-). I perfectly understand how hurtful it must be to learn that your son met OM. I'm dreading when it'll happen for my kids, and I know it'll hurt like hell. With everything that is happening to me (mainly with my parents), I really don't care what he does. He has chosen his path, now he has to walk it.

For too long I have put everyone before myself, as I'm kind and carying but to my expense. I pleased everyone but me. One thing DB has taught me is that we all have a choice in what we do, and I'm trying to make my choice on what's making me happy not STBXH. I try to do my best and see what the best choice is for my kids and I.

We all have ups and down, and I think it'll take a while for us to get back to ourself. We have been it with a huge blown and we need to recover from it. Rome hasn't been built in one day :-).
I know you don't want to see W, so do you need to sit next to or near her for the recital. I hope it goes well. You are a very strong person. At the end of the day we are only human. Take each day as it comes and as we are getting towards the best days, enjoy each bit of sun you can get and smell the fresh outdoor air.

Thinking of you and praying for you, mon amour :-)
