Hi all. Sorry about not checking in. Wasn't sure how to make a new thread and link them (figured it out) and also work has been bananas. Plus the 8 month old of course.
KML, thanks for reaching out to see how I'm doing! How are you?
For my sitch, I'm doing okay. Monday is court (confirming with lawyer). I think I'm mostly at the anger stage of grieving now vs acceptance. You know how the rollercoaster goes - some days sad, some days angry, some days apathetic.
He wears a man bun now, which my friends sent a pic of on his instagram (can't remember if I mentioned it here yet) because of how stupid it looked. I told them to stop sending me pictures. It did look pretty dumb in real life though.
STBX is still filling his days with yoga, and he has been volunteering at the cat shelter I would go to to pet cats. Seems like he's trying to do all the GAL activities recommended in breakup books, which you know, good for him, but all the cats and yoga in the world doesn't change the fact he emotionally cheated, abandoned his son, blah blah blah.
I am going to a medical society meeting in October so he'll babysit then, and doing a spa day with my coworkers. This weekend I have friends in town so we're going out and that'll be fun. I'm still doing dance lessons, just solo. My dance instructor made us a tango routine to a tango version of a Fallout boy song since I'm in the cranky stages of breakup and it was pretty fun.
I've noticed I'm spending a lot of money, I dunno if it's a compulsion since stbx claimed I'd worked too much and the financial insecurity concern had led me to do moonlight; or I'm just being hedonistic, or just so depressed about the housing market/current situation that I've given up on caring a ton about saving for a down payment, I dunno. I used to be really careful with spending and I'm a little upset at myself.
