Well, it is Thursday, yeah! Tuesday evening when I got home I received the paperwork from my stbx lawyer, so now I have to take them to my lawyer today. It was a weird feeling seeing the papers. Not a bad feeling, just weird...hard to explain. I had to go over to the house and take my little one, she wanted to get some things. He took a bear that was given to Hunter and was going to keep it. I was frustrated with him over it. This bear had been in his family for about 50 years and was given to her by his mother, but now his mother decided it should stay with him because of our divorce. I explained to him how rude it was to take something away from a child after it had been given to her. He eventually asked her if she still wanted it and of course she said Yes! It is one of her favorite bears and he knows this. He apologized to me over, but I told him I wasn't the one he needed to apologize to. I gave the two of them some space and privacy to visit and then when she went to her room he went into the kitchen where I was waiting and started talking to me. He asked how my day was and I told him I had a fabulous day, other than having to take my car to the shop and have a nail removed from one tire and a screw from another tire...fun!! :>) Which is something he should have done months ago instead just putting air in them when I would tell him the car is driving funny. Anyway...when my daughter and I were leaving I offered some movies that I had rented and already watched. He declined at first and then accepted. He started caressing my cheek and playing with my hair...WHY?!?!?!? I backed away and told him I had to go. I told him he could borrow the movies, but I was leaving. How can someone stand there and tell you how beautiful you are and tell you that you are still their best friend and they want to be with you after the divorce??? I just don't understand. I told him I was in a very happy place with myself. I was fine with the direction my life is heading and I thanked him. :>) I guess all in all it turned out o.k. I went on my way in a happy mood with a smile on my face. I went to San Antonio to see some relatives that I haven't seen in YEARS!!! It was so much fun, I didn't even want to come home. It was really great to see my Aunt & Uncle. They have invited me to visit them in Vermont. I just may have to take a trip!! :>) But seriously, it really was a great visit all in all.Well, I have to go to my attorney's office today and see what she says. Should be interesting. :>) I also have a Dr. appt today with a therapist. I don't really feel like I need one right now, but I guess I will let him be the judge of that. :>) I really feel pretty darned great right now. Life is wonderful, change is on the way, I am going down a new path and I LOVE IT!!! I am looking to the future and the new me! Thought for the day:You are an INCREDIBLE person!Happy day to all.X,O

Pretty as you are, I would not have stopped at the caress. We men are weak.
Wow, you had quite the story to tell there. I think you have a great attitude. Shows how much inner strength you have. Have a good session with your therapist and the trip to Vermont sounds good too.
i am very proud of you, because most women would have stayed there and let it happen. Good Job!!!!!
