Hi Gang:
MySTBX just lost his job -- AGAIN! This has been a habitual pattern since the day we were married 25 yrs ago, sometimes his own choosing, often not. He called me this a.m. to tell me he had a meeting scheduled with his boss, and wore the martyr cloak telling me "I don't think it's gonna be good." Then he called me a couple hours later to tell me he was gone.
I followed up with a call to him a little while ago to ask him what he plans to do the rest of the day. As it is, right now -- before this firing -- being in the same house or room has been unbearable -- he is so moody, and craps on everyone around him when he is -- but NOW! He'll be constantly underfoot -- outing, whining, and pissing on everyone! He tells me he's not planning on even LOOKING for a job for the next 3 months! That only delays filing/completing the divorce, or at the least makes it look like he earns a substantially lower salary than he is capable of and has had in the past...I could just SCREAM!!
NOBODY gets terminated this often! NOBODY! GRRRRRRRRRRR! I'm crawling into my hole to cry. WAAAAAAAAH.

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...

Oh and BTW, my ex was the same way, the longest she held on to a job was three weeks - guess that was some kind of a record for her!

I feel for you...I sure hope things work out better than they look right now.
My stbx was a habitual job quitter. Was never satisfied with his jobs but never got off his ass to do anything else.
