Sorry. That is rough. The Christmas and Christmas eve thing every year is not fair and I wouldn't sign off on that. They are your kids to and deserve to be with you on holidays, especially Christmas. Most people alternate holidays. I would suggest one year you get them on Christmas eve and she gets them on Christmas day, then the next year switch. Don't sign on anything that doesn't feel right. Hang in there Russ, be strong. You can still DB even separated. I just recently read someone's post where their WAS came back after being divorced a year. It does happen. Detach, GAL and move on. Be a friend but don't let her take advantage of you. I will keep you in my prayers. Keep checking in. I was worried about you.
Nothing new to report. H is still being fairly happy around the house. Of course I haven't brought up the topic of him choosing. The kids will leave on Wed to go to grandparents. So, I will wait and talk to him after they go. In fact, he said we will drive them to Brennan and meet his parents halfway. I am sure the we is more out of habit and him not wanting to explain to his parents why I didn't make the trip. So...for now I wait.
