Still here. Still not detached... (Part 2)

[Chris73]

Hi Everyone.

Haven't posted in a few days. My weekend in AC was fun but was over too fast. My sitch hasn't changed much, but I wanted to post tonight because I needed to pat myself on the back and you kind folks are the only ones who understand how hard it is to motivate yourself through a busy day when divorce looms.

So here's what I accomplished today...

--Got the kids up and off to school.

--Managed a completely civil conversation with my W about scheduling parent/teacher conferences for next week. Then she left for the day.

--Worked from home today, so after a couple hours of work I took a break and did an hour of yard work.

--Two conference calls for work from 11 to 12:30. Then more work.

--Spoke to a few mortgage lenders about refinancing my home.

--Spoke to a new family law attorney to get advice regarding my rights and options for my "collaborative" divorce.

--Picked the kids up from school.

--Finished work for the day.

--Helped S8 with his homework.

--Cooked dinner. Healthy stuff...no chicken nuggets and fries!

--Drove my S8 to football practice. Hung out with D5 while we watched.

--Drove home, read a book to D5 and put her to bed.

--Finished helping S8 with homework and studying for a spelling test tomorrow.

--Read with S8 before bed.

--Packed lunches.

--Cleaned the kitchen and dishes from dinner.

--Packed my bag for work tomorrow.

--Finished a load of laundry.

--Wrote this post

I will finish off the day with a soak in the hot tub before bed.

Whew! I'm going to sleep well.

I have the kids again tomorrow night, but it will be much less hectic. Pizza and a movie!!
