Well, things are moving along smoothly. I think this is the longest run of nothing exciting happening in years and years, maybe ever. I guess I don't have much to say and seems like that's a good thing considering all the other surrounding posts and the chaos. Gosh, I'm glad I don't have much to say. I have court on Friday for child support and plan to go to that, continuing work and school and kid saga and that's all there is! My boring but calm life!!!
Good for you, so many women , just say forget it. Thanks to Alanon I was able to get the strength to face my AH in court, and in the end couldnt afford the lawyer, but got enough information from my previous visits that I was able to represent myself. One thing I can say is that when you go to court, you think of it as a business deal , period, and not let your emotions rule your direction of what you expect to get done. When it gets to this point, you must keep in mind you are doing this for the future of your children and yourself. Be strong, speak the truth, and hold your head up high with dignity. Good luck.
Consider it a blessing. Chaos is exhausting and scary. And just think, you can thank yourself and your hard work for creating this nonexciting, nonchaotic life you and the kids now have!
Glad you have found some peace. Hopefully I will be there soon too. Well, at least maybe starting Sat through Sat. Hehehehe. And I am not sure how much is going to be peaceful vs. an all out blast! That is what I am shooting for. :)
Good luck in court. I hope you are awarded what you need to make things easier for you and the kids. :)
Please keep us posted on how it goes on Friday. I know it's weird for me when there's no drama. It's scary too. It's like "ok, so any minute the shoes gonna drop, right?"
I hope the A is getting to the point where he can see his actions have consequences. I feel sad and I feel glad at the same time. I know what it is to not know what to do with the calm.
I also hope that things start to look up for your financially.
Hi, At the end of each day that's been just ordinary, I thank God. I thank God for ordinary when I look at my neighbors who are been struggling with health issues, when I look at my students' parents as they struggle with their kid's disabilities and what to do, when I see some disaster on tv when someone has lost a dear one or a home... Ordinary is a blessing to be grateful for. Ordinary days give me the chance to breathe, to look around and see all I have, and it gives me hope.
I'm so glad you are having a wonderful, blessed ordinary day!!! Peace!!! I hope the Friday hearing goes smoothly with the child support settlement. Keep us posted... hugs, Lee Ann
