Quick recap of the day. 1st day I had some grief wash over me since the D petition was filed. Tough morning, but I muddled through. Staying busy at work helps to a point.

My mood improved through the day. On the drive home, while I still had a little sense of "losing the M," a question popped in my head: "Why are you sad to "lose" someone who doesn't want to be with you?" And, as soon as that question arose, the last bit of self pity disappeared.

The fact is, I don't want to be with someone, and will not miss that someone, who does not think enough of me and the family to make any effort to try to make the M and intact family work. Sorry, but I respect myself too much now to put up with that. The fact my W does not think I am worth her effort speaks volumes.

That's the spirit GIMA. You deserve much better, and one day you will get it. Keep with the positive thoughts.

Thanks Tridoc. I know I will go through more ups and downs, but unlike the first bomb, I know I can handle my emotions and life now.

Met with my L today. Not going into detail, but I feel better about a bad situation.

Hope everyone's hanging in there. Don't really have much to report tonight. I just AM.

Antlers, I picked up a book of Emerson's collected works. But, I can't find the poem you posted about yesterday on my other thread.

GIMA, that's because:

After, "It is the season to be jolly"
comes the season to let go of folly.

For a lot of folks it's clean up time...

EDIT: I'm glad to hear that things went well with your bulldog.

Thanks G. She should be what I need. It's going to be expensive, but it is nice to know she's got my back.
