Ancaire you are an inspiration for all of us. Throughout your posts we have seen you blossoming. You never gave up and always looked positively. Your last few posts show serenity, love and compassion for all of us.
"The stage of imaginary conversations" - I love this! I really hope no one drives past my house while I am animatedly conversing with H and sharing all of my feelings with him...while he is not there. I talk with my hands a lot. It might scare them, LOL.
Ancaire, it is really great to watch your growth as you tackle each phase of this emotional journey. Your sharing of your thoughts and what you take from each interaction with those on these boards and IRL is helpful and inspiring. Thank you for letting us walk with you and learn alongside you!

Having a wee bit of trouble staying calm today. Court is tomorrow. My L says that all we're going to do is hear what the prosecutor's first offer is, and we'll go from there.
For some reason, I thought they worked all these things out ahead of time. Ugh! Both my daughters are going to meet me there so I don't have to do it by myself again. That is some comfort.
I'm not counting on much sleep tonight.
H is being nasty about the settlement. We were trying to work it out without a mediator, but the way he's going, I don't see it happening. Independent of what ALL my doctors say, H has decided I'm not sick and can work full time.
I even have a letter from my doctor saying I'm restricted to part-time! He is being so nasty and insulting. I'm not responding in any way, shape, or form - other than being completely business-like through my L.
I'm beginning to hate him more and more. Maybe this is good for now? I see so little of my old H in this new version...it really makes it easy to walk away. I hate to think being married to me did this to him. He seems to think so. He admits I'm nice and kind, but some of the things he spews at me are just the opposite.
Sorry that you are having a bad day. On court, at least you will know something tomorrow. And you don't have to decide on anything. So it may be a good day in that aspect.
I'm thinking about ya. You will be ok!

Anc, wishing you some peace and sleep tonight. You need your wits about you for tomorrow ! I am so glad you have the support of your children. It doesn't matter what H thinks, everyone but him knows that!
You know the truth as well as everyone else but your H. Sometimes I feel that them being aggressive is a way to protect them from the hurt they have caused because deep down, they know how wrong they are.
It's great news that you will have the support of your kids. I'll be with you in spirit.
Take care and I hope you can get some rest tonight.
Oh ((((((Ancaire))))))) I hope you manage to get a little rest tonight. Thank goodness your children are going to be there for you tomorrow. I'll be thinking about you and hoping it goes well.
Thank you so much, everyone! I really appreciate it.
V - send some colored beams my way - I am open and ready...could really use them. My L is calling me tonight to prepare me a bit more, but he's telling me to not worry at all. These kinds of cases are where he shines...and he calls me "Sweet Judy"...the man truly likes me, so that helps!
Yeah - even Lawyers look like babies these days...
