Hey all, sorry to post so far apart. Big things happening in our lives. I am still sick... Zuki was right - it's a doozy.
H's children - the twins who live at their mom's house - were having some trouble. Their stepdad abused his D11 - hit her hard enough that she got a bloody nose. Then smashed the phone during her 911 call to help her mom while he was yelling and hitting her. No one badly hurt, but enough for their mom to get a 1yr restraining order against the jerk.
In any case, being a very good mom, she decided to give us custody so she can focus her energy and time on her two children by her second M. So, in a fuzzy frame of mind already from this horrible cold, we took custody of the children, and bid on a bigger house. We do the inspections tomorrow, and H signed custody papers today.
Whew. We haven't had time to work on ourselves at all. But we will be back on board soon. Just wanted to update. Right now we are in hover mode in our M just until the new house and kids are settled. Then I guess we will go back to working on our issues. The kids need us both very much right now so it is back to being selfless and sacrificing for them, and I just hope our M is strong enough to survive while it is back to being ignored.
