Easter Sunday Randoms!

Happy Easter!!


Yesterday I did a 5K. My mom pushed me in my chair the whole way! She did awesome especially since she is almost 57! I saw and met one of my favorite baseball players from my childhood and got my picture taken with him! He was super nice! I have made it a goal with my physical therapist to be able to at least walk the whole 5K next year pending my ankle surgery recovery. I was just so happy to get out of the house and still be able to participate in the race.

On another note, I had a drink a midnight, but I made it all of lent without drinking any alcohol! The one drink did me in! lol!

I hope everyone has a great Easter!

Good for you abcdefu! I celebrated Easter yesterday so I'm chilling today. Gonna clean, catch up on some work and go on a walk. I'm also going to try and make a healthyish breakfast hash today.

Happy Easter!

This year's bunny cake. Not my best, but I rushed it. Oh well, it'll still taste delicious.


I'm about to get the ham in the oven. The table is set. My aunt, uncle, and their son are not coming today. They just got back from a road trip to Florida so I figured they wouldn't be coming but planned for it anyway, just in case. So now I have a 14 lb ham for 4 adults and 2 kids (neither of who will eat much). Guess everyone will be taking home a LOT of leftovers!

I texted XH to remind him to bring the butter lamb and the cd with the Easter bunny pics when he drops off DDs, and he replied "happy Easter to you too". Oops. Ok, so I didn't text "happy Easter", he didn't have to make me feel bad and call me out on it though.

That looks so good sweetchix!

I'm not celebrating Easter today. I went for a run and the rest of the day I have to be productive work-wise.

Happy Easter everyone!

My kids are at their dad's and I'm sad. I'm going running in a beautiful park soon, so that should help get my mind off of missing them.

I had wine at lunch yesterday and then went wine tasting with friends, I was in bed by 9pm. I can't day drink anymore!

I posted this in the MMM randoms, but it's more appropriate here.

H is moving out next week and I'm seriously struggling with it. Even though he's a crappy H, we have been married for 13 years and I am so sad for ds. Yesterday ds told me, "I'm going to miss daddy when he moves to a new house. Will he have kids there for me to play with? Will I have a new mommy?" I think my heart shattered into a million pieces and I've been in a serious funk ever since.

Not to mention H continues to lie about his side piece and keeps telling me, "it makes me sad you don't trust me."

I want to fast forward a few years and skip all this healing garbage.

abcdefu yay for progress!
sweetchix that cake is adorable
asoctoberfalls hugs, sorry its been such a rough week.

I did the Disney day by myself, and actually went back the next morning. It was great to be able to do what I wanted and I didn't feel weird being by myself at all. Epcot was a good choice because it was just wondering around vs. standing in lines.  I ended up making a reservation for breakfast before Magic Kingdom opened yesterday, so I got in around 7am when the park didn't open until 9am, and got some awesome pics of pretty much the whole place to myself (pic below because it was so cool). I wondered around, ate breakfast, got in line for Space Mountain, met Anna and Elsa, and got the heck out by 10am as it was getting packed. I am Disney'd out now and ready to start spending all my free weekends at the beach.

I'm not sure how old your kiddo is, but my kids loved these books when xh and I separated:

Today is really hard. I went to church thinking it would help but seeing all the families and having to put on a happy face made me feel worse. I've been trying to stay positive and strong but I'm just sad today.

asoctoberfalls my h is moving out soon and continues to lie about the woman he's seeing too. I don't understand why, or who he's trying to convince at this point. I identify so much with your last sentence.

Hard days are hard, asoctoberfalls and marylennox. And cheaters lie. I think in my case, STBXH continues to try to save face. Try not to let the continued lying get to you, it's just a reflection of who they are now. You deserve so much better and it will get better.

I'm sad today too and have been hibernating. I don't have any local family and it's tough scrolling through FB and seeing all of the Easter family gatherings.

I live alone, no kids, so it's me and my dog; thank God for my dog! And Netflix. It's rainy and gloomy out otherwise I'd go for a hike or something.

I did talk to my mom on the phone so that helped a little but I'd never share with her I'm feeling sad for fear she'd excessively worry about me.

I also wanted to AW me and my niece, now that I can PIP.

marylennox I feel the exact same as you. I think we are in the exact same place both timeline-wise and emotionally. It's really hard. Today has been the hardest day so far (the second hardest day was my birthday 2 weeks ago). I've always loved church on Easter - it's my favorite day of the year as far as church goes. Today, I just cried through all the songs I usually love.

H and I had agreed that I would have ds home from my parents house at 4 so he could celebrate Easter with ds. 4:00 came and I was home - no sign of H. I texted him, no response. So I texted the friend he was with and asked them to tell him that ds was waiting for him to color eggs. He ended up being home at 4:45, but I'm worried that this is a glimpse into the future - him disappointing ds and not responding to me.

It didn't help that he was super chipper when he got home and said, "what's wrong with you? I've had a great day."

Church used to make me cry all the time but it got better as time goes on. Family centered events are still really hard.

I am in nesting mode here. I ordered new curtains, shelves, and pictures and have been repairing things left and right.
