Good, thanks.Working my tail off, 6-61/2 days a week. Have stopped the financial slide and reversed it. Chipping away little by little. Friday, I go to court to file for modification & get served re: X wanting some of the proceeds I now get by renting out 2nd floor master bedroom suite. mad
Overall, things are very good in the mental, physical, emotional, spiritual "arenas" and improving ever-so-slightly financially. Socially? Lagging behind.
I'm moving to Oregon when this friggin' house finally sells. How soon after the sale depends on what time of the year/season it is.

Haven't been to your thread today, yet and I'm heading out for a bit. How how goes it? I'll check in later.

G, glad to hear you're getting a handle on the financials. That's awesome!! That's what we do, we figure out ways to fix problems not run away.

As for your social life, one thing at a time G. Don't stress over it. Do what you can today and leave the rest when things calm down a bit - and they will.

You know G, if you end up paying her a portion of the rental just consider it charity and move on. Not worth your time and energy fighting over it.

Ya think? wink I am getting out though.

Going to The Gathering Of The Vibes www.gatheringofthevibes.com/Home next month.

Pete Seger's annual Clearwater's Festival this Sunday www.clearwaterfestival.org (been wanting to go for years).

Looking for places where like-minded, similar interests/lifestyles people would be. And breaking out of my lifelong under-the-radar style by striking up conversations everywhere.

Baby steps. No expectations. But fun.

My thoughts and approach exactly.

Ditto.

Thanks.

Journaling,

Court today to submit Modification and to schedule the hearing date. Got there 15 minutes early. Did my part of paperwork and payment.

X called five minutes late. Said she'd be another 10 minutes or so. Showed up 15 minutes late (becoming quite a consistent habit. Passive-Aggressive.). In retrospect, I realized I shouldn't even have answered the phone.
When she showed up I suddenly had a thought and asked Clerk if I was done. Yes, says clerk.
"Goodbye, X."
I left immediately.

Toy Story 3 with S, 31 & GS, 4 this evening for early Fathers' Day (I'll be at a festival all day Sunday). Great time. Great Movie!

Almost teared up when Woody was described as someone who'll always be there for you. Always. Never let you down. Followed by, "So long, Partner."
But I stopped. I refused.

Work today was great. Beautiful day. Work tomorrow. And, like I said, Festival Sunday.

Sounds like you got the court stuff done so a productive day there and you got to go out and watch a good movie with S too.

What do you do Gardener? Landscaping as the name implies?

excellent response to the ex. well done, g.

Toy Story was my daughter's absolute favorite thru her young childhood. Buzz and Woody dolls went with us everywhere, followed by Bullseye and Jessie when they arrived on the scene. in fact, we were at the opening matinee of Toy Story 2...and she's at her dad's for Toy Story 3, which I'm trying not to find terribly sad. But...I stopped. and I refused too. nothing's gonna spoil those memories for me!

Take her to see Toy Story 3 again with you. What? She's gonna refuse? She'd love to see it again!
Go with your daughter.
