Every Saturday morning I get the blues. It's the first big block of time that I have to myself, and it's like I save up all the feelings that I couldn't express during the week adn they hit me all at once (sometimes this starts on Friday night). I am getting better every week (just finishing week #12 of the break-up/divorce process -- seems like 12 years!) but everything still feels so hollow and lonely. Nothing I do seems to matter to anyone but me, which is good of course to do things that matter to me for a change, intellectually it is good, but emotionally it gets tough. 12 weeks and no human being has been in this house with me except for the day that stbx and his brother came to empty out half of it and that was like 8 weeks ago. It just seems unbeleiveable that in this crowded and needy world that I can be so alone.
I will read some books this weekend, clean house, try to teach the little puppy how to walk on a leash, try to get out to by some new shoes that I desperately need, mow the lawn, do some work that I brought home from the office, work on my personal budget, watch some TV, try to plan more healthy dinners for next week (so tired of microwaving everything). I read that list and it is just so apparent that my life is empty. What a f'd up 10 years I had with stbx. I was so much happier and healthier and financially stable before he came along!

I know what you mean. WE used to do stuff on the weekends, now I just sit around alone. This one is gonna be tough. Most of my friends are out of town as it is a long weekend here. Good for you for having a list of things to do to keep busy.

i was happier, healthier and financially stable also before mine came along also. through the wonders of a beginning romance everything was so awesome. i thought it was going to be for a lifetime, i know the lonliness even though there are people around me. hang in there, we are really getting better, it's going to take quite some time, we need to be patient. it's hard i know. thank God we have each other. lonely is right the best is yet to come.

I feel for you anne. I'm alone every weekend too. I've got my kids and will probably always have them. Hubby is to busy swinging to give them much time. I don't know how I'm ever going to be able to socialize with my kids always in my posession and No family around to help.

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
