Today was the court date over the interim sharing of the dog. Long story short, ex has to share and I get my little monkey tomorrow!!!!! I can not wait to snuggle with him. 7 months is far too long and I pray that he remembers me, and is comfortable with me in my place. I can't even express the excitement I'm feeling right now.
It didn't come easy, and while this was a minor puddle to jump, I got a decent flavor for the how the rest of the divorce is going to go and, as I mentioned before, this guy isn't above doing some low down dirty scheming. Got lots of things to work through still. Guard is wayyyy up.
I'm currently at work and I can't concentrate. I just want to run to the store to get him fresh food, treats, and some new toys. I still have his Christmas present wrapped and waiting for him in my living room. (Yes, I'm one of the those dog ladies). I can't wait to see him.
So, today was also the first time I've seen ex in 7 months. I didn't expect him to show at all, but we got to the courthouse right at the same time. No words or eye contact was exchanged. Total strangers.
I looked ok, but not my total best, as I would have if I was still DBing. I'm just living my life regardless of what I look like to him. I made sure not to fidget and look nervous, though I wanted to vomit. My lawyer soon came and we had a few laughs over some of the comments I had to defend that ex has presented in his testimony. Still boggles the mind, but the chuckles helped prevent me from bursting out into tears over the situation.
So... All in all.... I'm so excited to see my pup, but am fearful of what's next. This was not the news ex wanted to hear so I'm weary of the retaliation. Knowing him, he'll fire his lawyer and who knows what else.
With that I wish you all a great day.
