Journaling

Not much to report. D process has been extended until next month. All convo with STBEW is minimal and kept in regards to logistics for the kids. I do continue to get more time with them so that is great! Celebrated Easter with them and had a blast!

Think the hardest part out of all this now is when I don't have my girls. I am keeping extremely busy, but there are times at night (when the house is silent) that it creeps in. Once I start missing them I begin to feel anger and resentment towards the STBEW because I think she is taking them from me..... Even though I only go 2 days a week without having them it is still really difficult to deal with right now. I will get there.

I haven't been posting much because I have used most of my time on here reading. Reading a lot of sitch's from newcomers and even a lot from the vets on here. For all those who are newcomers I would suggest you check out some of the wonderful posts from the vets on here. Their insight can possibly help shed some light on your sitch.

Are just a few out of many wonderful people on here that have shared some of the same experiences with their S's and offered some really good advice and even some laughter at times.

Some of these vets were DB'ing when I was blissfully in love and unaware of what was about to happen. Some are still here today trying to offer any wisdom or help that they can to the newcomers.

When I first came here I was SadAndLonely, but I think now its time to change my username..... Think this is only possible because of what I have learned from all the wonderful people on here and Michelle's books.

Yes, it stinks that we all find ourselves here, but I truly believe that what we take from here are great tools that can make us all better our future R's with or without our S's. I personally know that I have come a long way in just a few short months and look forward to a brighter future.

Onward and upward my friends!
