Jeep,

That's a rational fear.

When my XW was a little girl, she went to a doctor. The doctor told her mother that something was amiss. Apparently her mother never did anything about it; no questions, nothing. That's scary. It's good that you remain vigilant when it comes to your children.



Thank you, Doodler.

I feel as if I'm just barely keeping my nose and eyes above water and I have so far to swim. My kids are my life. Period. And I'll do anything to protect them.

At any rate, its been a week since the judge declared us divorced in this great state. And you know what? I'm great - just great! No anger, no sadness, nothing...

Isn't that a great feeling? I, too, felt that rather quickly after our D was final, mainly because we'd been separated completely for 3 months prior to D so that was just like this relief almost. It was done. I'm glad for you, Jeep! Keep on with that. smile

Thank you, Dawn.

You know, driving out to courthouse was rough, I won't lie. It was like the longest drive of my life. After? Just like a weight had been lifted.

Roughly 2 years after BD. Maybe it was that relief. At any rate, the sun is shining and I have my kids!

Had an extra-long talk with Harley Quinn last night after the kids went to sleep. Visit one will be when they are at their mom's for spring break in a few weeks. Visit two - which is the trip - will be in the summer when the kids are at their mom's for the week or so.

It sounds like you've got something to look forward to. Most excellent!

Doodler,

Yes, yes it is. For the first time in a long time, I'm starting to get excited. I need to temper that, though.

Jeep,

I'm glad you're getting excited! To h3ll with tempering it. I'm getting excited too. If you need a tag-along, you know how to get in touch with me. (That's just a little weird, but you know, sometimes a guy has to take risks.)

Doodler,

I need to temper things, my friend. I have a ton of trust issues to deal with...

I do think you need to give Don some dating advice laugh
