Whether you need a place to vent, someone to hold you to No Contact, or need advice about what to do, we're here to help.
I recently picked up book to read with my kids: Mom's House, Dad's House for kids by Isolina Ricci. It has a chapter that discusses how children might be feeling during divorce, I thought the analogy was great, a good way to explain emotions to your kids...but I think we can all relate:
Most of the time feelings are mixed together - just like a soup. Confused, afraid, shocked, relief, numb, mad, weird, sad, and GRIEF. You can feel one way today and another way tomorrow. Your feeling soup can taste really AWFULl! Tell yourself, I'm not weird, its just my feeling soup."

I bought this book too! It was recommended to me by someone on DS - I found it really helpful.

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...
