My ex emailed me and called me a few days ago as his car broke down in a bad way and he needed a ride to work, and was on the fence about that because my morning situation is tough.  He was ok with...

I will preface this by saying I am not asking for support or a beating either one.  I just need to lay this out and get it out of my head. My divorce became final in November and that felt good. ...

I have been back in touch with my ex and did so at my own peril.  I let him down on New Year's Eve (because I took a nap and missed his phone call). He has feelings hurt over that.  I made the...

I am officially on vacation until January 5th and boy oh boy do I need it.  Work has been rough for weeks on end.  The kids have been off the chain crazy and troublesome.    I have not been...

Yesterday I was expecting my mother to come for a visit, but instead I got a phone call that my 97 year old grandmother had a stroke and was doing very poorly, and the prognosis of recovery is...

Work was pretty brutal this week.  I am relieved to be having a quiet night at home tonight.  Alone is just fine at this point.  I spend my workdays largely trapped in a crazy elementary school,...

I know I need to finally get to those two things to let it all go, and be done with the emotions.But I will be straight up, right now I wish I could see that he was suffering at least a little over...

I am struggling with the mutual friend stuff right now.  He and I are over and clearly some have taken his side.  Facebook has been interesting to observe.I have some serious anger going on over...

For the love of God I cannot imagine this occurring today.  I went to the grocery store, way out the road from me. And much farther for the ex.   But who the heck joins that parking lot right...

My lovely daughter came in last night late and I was sound asleep early when she got here.She was tired too I guess and got right into the bed I made up for her nicely.    I slept on the air...

Last night I opened an old book I had not read in a while and inside it I found a typed copy of our wedding vows and that tore me up.  We wrote them and spoke them to each other.We both failed at it...

I made myself a good meal and did a lot of chores and that feels good.  More to do tomorrow, as always.  The animals seem chilled out and as ready for bed as I am even though it is crazy early.  I...

I am so grateful for everyone who has been supportive and uplifting on this forum.You are my new posse. When I broke with my first husband after 20 years I was worse off than now, emotionally.I went...

I need to laugh more and I cherish people who have a healthy sense of humor and who are also pranksters. I worked for the Fisher family in various capacities for many years. The Fisher men made me...
