I called my mom to see if she would go with me on Wednesday to buy a new tree. She said she's got a brand spankin' new in the box tree for me!
She bought it for their lake house and never used it, they sold the lake house last month. So now I have a free tree!
STBX is taking DS to his parents for Thanksgiving. I think I'll watch Hallmark and decorate while DS is gone. Hopefully he will come home to a winter wonderland.

Yay! That's awesome of your mom!
Oh, and a random addition. I found these things called "scentsicles" that actually smell like a real tree. I think all fake trees should have them. And they are an American company. I may have bought more than I needed in order to hoard them.

How are you? (I wonder if i've missed an update on your status with H and whatnot... I was just coming back from a chatting hiatus when stuff went down and i've been wondering about you...)
I'm good. I really feel at ease with the decision to separate and most likely divorce. I don't feel torn or turmoil. I really feel that it's the best decision.
I do feel bad for him, but keep reminding myself that he's the one who made his bed...

Can I admit that I was kind of happy to see you refer to him as STBX? Not happy that this is happening to you, but happy that you are taking control of your life and putting you and your child first. Hugs. And happy fake tree!

Even though it's happening to me and I know the true meaning of STBX, I still read it as "stupid bastard ex"
Apparently always have, always will.
ETA: I do not think of STBX in this way, just how I've always read it.
