Unilateral Disarmement - 3

[Wendylon]

Thank you so much, H2H and Slowly, for stopping by. You're right, H2H, I need practical goals and I need to be consistent. Thanks, Slowly, for reassuring me that a lot of this stuff is par for the course post-A.

H and I are completely caught up in our fight against our Local Education Authority over the school placement for S6 (who is autistic). The tribunal date is coming up and our LEA has hired a barrister so we've got our work cut out for us as the LEA are up to nasty tricks.

Luckily, we really see eye to eye on everything to do with S6 and I keep thinking how lucky it is that we are still living together. It would be a nightmare to try to get our legal case off the ground if we were separated.

I still keep running into OW. She's put on lots of weight! I even told H I'd seen her and pointed her out to a friend of mine who'd said, "It can't be OW, that woman is pregnant". H said, "Yes, I know, she's put on lots of weight". We left it at that.

While there is still no physical or verbal affection between us, I think we both feel we're really in this together. H has postponed his departure thereby shortening his upcoming trip to China as he didn't feel right being away with so much to do re S6's case. I'm really relieved.

We've had some nice family times, though my stress does come out with the kids. At bathtime last night, S10 asked, "Is this still that time just before your period?"

I'm still amazingly grateful for this BB even though I'm not visiting as much. I am still keeping up with quite a few threads, though.
