Money. Yes, it’s important. And XH is meeting the legal requirements. Such as they are.
However, little G is more important.
Consider her and you. Your relationship. As you say, you were screwed financially. And only financially. Realize that. What you have, is worth more than money, and cannot be bought.
Feeling defeated. Yep. And that will flit. A temporary state.
Deep down, you have a wellspring of uplifting joy and pride and fulfilment with such a daughter in your life. And, truth be told, the hardships you’ve had to live through, make that even more golden.
Little G will never ever forget all you’ve sacrificed and provided for her. She currently doesn’t express nor understand the depth of all that. In time she will.

Well said, D! Couldn't agree more.
Ginger your ExH may enjoy his financial situation living in a two income household all these years, but you'll have a deeper relationship with your daughter. His loss.

It was the best day ever! Started with breakfast and mimosas . Went to the spa with hot tubs, sauna and massages. Then for margs and dinner. I went with friend to her dR appt( it’s our doctor friend) she was the last spot, so the 3 of us went for margs and dinner after.
I really needed today. I felt genuinely happy. We have decided we are going to do the spa day every 3 months.
Sounds perfect. Glad you got a much deserved you day.

Thanks BL. Back to the normal stress and grind today. I will always have memories of yesterday.
I will always be thankful for the great relationship me and my D have. Although lately she’s been a bit relentless. “Mom, you need to do this, mom fix this, mom I need that, mom when are you going to…..” she thinks I’m some sort of machine. I guess it’s a compliment.
Hey BL, I’m not going to pursue you anymore, but I was wondering if you have been to the “sea hear now” music fest?
Wow, G, that is so weird!!! My FB feed just showed me an ad for that festival, and I was looking at it to see where it was (why FB thinks I would fly across the country for it I have no idea, although - the Breeders, Weezer, Tegan and Sara.....).
And then I open up my computer and here you are mentioning it! I think it's a sign you should go!

Sounds like my kids! Hoped that would change as they got older, but you're not reassuring me lol

Never have, but interestingly enough just yesterday a friend posted about it on SM. Lineup looks great: Foo Fighters, Weezer, The Killers...etc. How old are The Beach Boys at this point? lol
