Update: I'm now officially moved and all settled in at my friends house. The dogs are doing well at my parents, so things are pretty good. The W did deal a pretty massive blow to me and she knew it would. On friday, my last day at the old place. I was loading up the last of my stuff and my landlord wanted to do a walkthrough of the place. So the LL came by, mentioned a few things that needed some cleaning. Nothing major, and I was outside talking with her afterwards and giving her my key when the W pulled up. She asked about the walkthrough, deposit, etc... I went back inside to take care of those things for the LL and she started to load up her last few things into her car.
Well before she left, she came inside and asked if I wanted to say bye to the kids while she had them (Note for those not following the sitch, it's her friends kids I've grown attached too) at first I didn't want too, because I knew what she was doing, but I also knew the kids seen me then since I was outside when she pulled up and I couldn't do that to them. So I went outside and she just got into the drivers seat and I opened the back door and started to talk to them. The youngest (2yo) was in and out of a nap and she opened her eyes and seen me then jumped to fully awake screaming MIKEY!! I just about lost it, held it together though and gave them hugs and kisses, told them I missed them and love them. Then I started to tear up and had to say bye, shut the door and walked away. And the W just slammed the car into reverse and full speed pulled away, knowing she got a good final blow on me.
So Friday, was a very physically, emotionally, mentally draining day.
