My sponsor had me phone her before I walked into court, we would say the Step Three prayer together. After court, I'd call her again, we called it "bookending." Aligning ourselves and relying on Higher power makes us strong enough to do the next right thing, always. these stressful events, to me, are where "the rubber meets the road" in recovery. I pray you will keep reaching for higher power, the solution. keep praying only for HIS will and the power to carry it out, indeed, it will all be okay ((hugs))

I have court today and I am completely nervous in a good way I think, .. regardless of the outcome the kids and I really are going to be fine. I'm just so anxious to get in and get out and I have to wait ALL afternoon. Compound that with Mr Crazy Pants is soooo in town at the moment and I'm working on not engaging him at any level. I'm so very grateful not everyone thinks the way I do .. there would be a ton of evil little minions running around and that would so not be a good thing.
Anyway thank you so very much for the love and support I have come to rely on here, hugs P :)

Well we will be going back to court AGAIN on the 17th I'm a little irritated that none of this is settled. He was such a jerk it wasn't even funny and he actually tried to talk to me!? I'm like ummm .. court isn'tn over yet I'll get back to you on the 17th. I didn't say it however it was thought and brought.
The thing is I know the money will be lowered .. I get that .. and honestly that's ok. He doesn't get that .. LOL .. I guess it doesn't matter what he thinks .. he's acting as if he's got one over on me and we aren't there.
So it's hard to have to wait another 14 days and there is a TON for my atty and I to discuss on Wednesday of next week. LOL .. he already knows what I'm bringing up we didn't have a chance to meet and I guess I already knew what was going to happen and he will better explain to me what is going on. Now what my STBAX doesn't realize is this isn't over and it doesn't have to be for a LONG time .. I do not have to settle at this point.
I have no plans to do so right now so .. it's just going to be what it's going to be and again .. I'm ok with where I am at .. I just hate that free floating feeling.
LOL .. thanks for the support my tummy was not flipping and flopping and I am really prepared after all things have to get different so they can get better. :)
Hugs P :)
