Growing Pains(LB55 thread 4)

[LB55]

Thanks U, glad to have something positive come of all this. We are here to help each other in the best way we each know how.

Kids decided they wanted chicken fettuccine Alfredo instead. So just a quick shift in menu but I love to make their favorites. I know they aren’t getting them at home because they tell me what W cooks for them. Noodles with butter on them. Pillsbury canned biscuits with pizza sauce and cheese on them. I guess she is trying.

I’d like a 50-50 agreement on custody. Right now in temp orders I’m on every other weekend with one weeknight. It works ok. Unfortunately my military obligations make a 50/50 deal untenable for the kids. They would have to get up at 4 to go to a sitter and then I’d get home at 6. That’s not a good life for them. My time is done in 20 months so taking lots of time in the D is helping me get closer to being able to argue intelligently for that.

If I had one thing for you I’d say be patient. I can see my exact cycles in your situation. 4 monthss ago. Be patient. Work on yourself. Go back and read my stuff. 3 months ago I was full steam ahead to get this crap over with. I’m glad I resigned myself in, my R with the kids has really grown and it’s giving everyone time to decide what they really want. So don’t burn bridges. I haven’t yet and I’m happy for that. I burn bridges in the car. It prevents me from saying dumb stuff when I’m in person.

U, You’ve made a lot of progress, keep up the work. You were a tornado of despair just a few months ago. I remember. Keep your head up and keep working towards your goals.

By the way my kids are singing along with Johnny Cash Ring of Fire. My kids are cool.
