thanks Kml and Bttrfly, I usually say happy mothers day to a few dads who I know personnal who pull double duty. I don't want to take anything away from the moms. Besides fathers day is around the corner. Maybe there should merge the two and call it parents day.. or a parents week :-)
Just a quick update. I sold my house this week. The real estate market had shut down for a few weeks since this covid started. It only opened up last week. Had 3 visits and 3 offers. So i am very happy for the sell price. Move out date is june 24.
The challenge is, the house i intended to buy and move into. it's no longer available. The home owners lost their jobs and the purchase of their new home got derailled.
So this week i am visiting a few more houses , hopfully we find our dream home. I am in no panic even though the days are flying by. My cousin has an airBnB she can't rent so I can use that temporally. Pretty good deal. Inground pool and lake front.
As for the girls. Keeping teeenage girls sane and inside isn't easy. As i'm sure you are all experiencing tough times.
for the MLC XW. well she wrote me a few times. Talking about good times, mistakes she's made and regret. She oppened up on her poor choice of boyfriends. I listened and didn't add anything to stick her with the "I told you so" or "AH HA... i'm not the crazy one after all."
It was emails, texts and even a phone calls. She seemed as if a few more lights came on.
Sadly it didn't last and I am so happy i didn't feed into it and I didn't fall for it. Maybe just before our last email exchange something happened in her life that made her slip back into the whole.
Last weekend I get a message. Telling me I am no good, ruined her life. ruining the girls lives and that they need her. I reminded her " Yes, they did need you. In the past when we seperated , the girls deffinitely needed a mom for love and support during the hardest time of their lives. You chose not too."
Irish, that's not what I said. They need me know. It's mothers day, don't you think the girls need a mother.
I guess another mothers day explaining to people in her entourage why she dosnt see her girls is hard.
XW, you can ask them what they need. You might not get an answer but if you do nothing then expect nothing
Irish, when we split up, you should of forced them to see me.
XW, maybe you don't remember. When you split us up, your life plan was no kids and no responsibilities. You gave them up like an old pair of shoes. You ran and they had no place in your life. Now we can't go back in the past, what's done is done. But, what you do with the next few days, weeks, months and years is all on you. I can't help you. If ever you remember and want to discuss it with me or them you have everyones emails. If you want to still lie and twist the facts , then I don't have time.
with that it went quiet.
On the job front. Its been 80 hour weeks. Business is great, I have a job still and to buy a new house I am not stressed out. I do wish the Covid was gone and life returned to normal. I miss social interaction.
Hope you are all practicing social distancing and protecting your families and your self.
take care
Irish
