I'm wearing a new skirt and new boots today. It's a long, a-line, khaki colored denim skirt with brown leather boots with buckles and stuff with a blue fitted t-shirt. And my hair is cooperating. I feel purty.
I don't recall your SIL's story. I vaguely remember something about a nutter, but I don't remember the specifics.

You sound pretty, chirp.
((didn't want to keep the detail up. Quick rundown would be: person I know gets cheated on multiple times, but still returns to cheater and it makes me sad))
Well, I guess it was wedding day. With his "cousin" (not really related, step cousin sort of thing). I only remember ___ being pissed at him, but didn't know why. Found out later it was because he went to have a private chat with the girl, and ___ knew they both had a thing for each other.
Find out much later that her worries were indeed founded.
partiallysunny that's sad. He sounds like a pretty terrible person and it's awful that she doesn't see that she's worth more than all that. I hope one of these times her leaving him sticks.

Ditto this. It sucks to watch, but sadly, there's not too much anyone else will be able to do to make her see the light. She has to want to see it for herself. If you poke too much, she'll probably see it as an affront and try even harder to make it work with the loser.
I think mostly all of us have been there. Just make sure she knows that you're there, you know, just in case. Hopefully she'll come around in time.
Oh, and ew. His cousin?! Ick. I have step-cousins and step-second cousins, and I still wouldn't sleep with them even if they aren't a blood relation. Hell, there are family friends that I wouldn't sleep with. We treated each other like siblings which makes it far too close for me. Ew ew ew.

I don't poke at all. I just know what ___ tells me. Her and I don't talk much, especially about her husband. We use to talk from time to time, but since she's been with her husband... he isolates her. She misses a lot of functions.
partiallysunny, that is just so sad. If she ever (finally) leaves him for good, you will have to throw her a really kickass divorce party. It's mandatory!
My first therapy appointment is this afternoon. I'm leaving work about an hour early to take advantage of a little me time. I think I'll go wonder around Target!

Yeah for you time and Target. I love Target. I can always find something I NEED to have.

I hope it goes well for you missme! (Therapy AND Target, of course)
My randoms...
I decided to bust out my new black heels and trade in my usual jeans and nice shirt for a black pencil skirt and fuschia cardigan. I'm feeling pretty fancy myself today!
stbx told me last night (during a refreshingly brief phone conversation) that he accepts that I am filing for divorce and he's not going to try to change my mind anymore. What he is asking is that I wait a couple of months to file so he can save some money for a retainer for a lawyer. I'm ok with waiting I guess, I mean, I don't want him to feel like he's being screwed over and if obtaining legal council will help him feel better about it, then that's what needs to happen... I'm just at the point where I want to be done and I want to move forward. Also, I need to talk to my lawyer about any legal ramifications to waiting. I want to make sure DS and I are protected legally in the meantime.
