Weekend randoms!

[abcdefu]

Today, for the first time, I ventured out by myself using my chair. I'm at Starbucks at the mall and then I'm getting my hair done.

Other than the sidewalk ramp being lifted and I almost dumped myself, then I was laughing so hard at myself that I just couldn't wheel, I feel so free and independent! I promise I won't start singing independent woman by Destiny's Child, out loud anyway!

What's everyone else doing today?!

[glitzyglow]

Good for you abcdefu! And I had totally forgotten about that song...now I'm currently listening to it on YT. "I depend on me...I depend on ME." Amen!

I'm working per a normal Saturday. I have a small headache and my throat is hurting a bit. I had fun at the music event last night, but the drop in the temperature apparently did not please my body. My cat also woke me up at 5am and he was using my pillow to stand over me with his face right in mine. I was like, "What are you doing?" and he then proceeded to sneeze right in my eye. EW and UGH. Cats, man.

No plans tonight as of now. Tomorrow I am hoping to get up early and go for a long run at the park and just chill at home until Game of Thrones comes on! A friend of a friend texted me yesterday asking to hang out this week, so I might see if she's free tomorrow afternoon or Monday evening to hang out...yay new friends!

Father's day being tomorrow sucks.

DS had a card they made in daycare saying "Dad, a child's first hero". Not in my world. I threw it away.

I'm going to concentrate on giving my dad and awesome father's day. Screw STBXH

My new schedule for the kids starts tomorrow! I'm kidfree at noon tomorrow!

Got some opera tickets for July. A world premiere work. I am so excited.

before school got out DD's class made Daddie and me books ... The only thing she got right was that she and her dad had a game called tickle time - everything else was a fabrication: they never watched Warrior games together, never played basketball, never went to the pool together ... makes me sad she's starting to 'forget' him

I hate Father's Day ... also the day I had him arrested for violating the RO and he ended up being charged w a host of other things too

DS is only 15 months, but he hasn't said "dada" once since I kicked H out 10 days ago. I was always by far the main caregiver. It will be interesting down the road when he does see STBXH.

I wish I could get sole custody (which based on his alcoholism may be possible) and never have either of us see him again

Hope tomorrow goes by quickly for you

My bf is super sick and he started tearing up because he wishes I was there. Which obviously made me cry. Long distance really is difficult. He broke my heart seeing him so sick and tearing up because he misses me. I wish I could do something to make him better.

Hello! I've been going chores (and watching a lot of agents of s.h.i.e.l.d). I'm in the short lull between two business trips, and my daughter's out of town, so it seemed smart to try to lay low and straighten up. It would be fun to enjoy the weather/socialize, but i want to save money and rest up.

That's great abcdefu!

I'm going on an adventure tonight with a friend to a series of jazz bars. I don't love jazz, but it should still be fun.

I have full legal and physical custody of dd (she's almost 7 now but was just 4 when we split) and her dad due to ongoing substance abuse issues has zero visitation. I have 2 protective orders in place to keep him away from us. The last time dd saw her dad was 8/2014.

We when left, the dogs got out of the new place and she was hysterical !!! we left xh and not a tear, no I miss poppa, NOTHING !!

I had an awesome date today! Lunch and then we went canoeing on a local lake. Conversation is so easy and flows so well, I like that I like him more and more as I get to know him too rather than the opposite. I think this is the first time I've been really excited about dating in a long time rather than just forcing myself to do it. Hooray.

This weekend has so far been rough for me...but I'll get through it. I'm constantly thinking about my ex and what he's doing and who he's with. I don't have many friends (since I was somewhat cut off while being with him) and am finding myself incredibly depressed. Even my mom is on your case about getting out of the house.

I'm super lonely and sad...ugh. Ex is out having a great time with all the friends he was able to keep in our relationship. I've seen pics on fb. I'll be unfriending some mutual people.

Sorry to be a downer. I had high hopes to have fun this weekend. Just finding it difficult.

DD2 got her haircut this morning and then we went to a birthday party for my step-niece. DDs had a lot of fun, and the weather was gorgeous, but the party was a bit unorganized.

Afterwards XH came to get them and we went over our new calculations for child support. He's going to start paying that new amount with next week's payment and pay the back dues in 2 payments since it amounted to $300. He also paid me half the proceeds from the baby stuff he sold and gave me the rest of the stuff we had to sell. I was quite surprised at how easy it went.

Now I'm set up to binge watch OITNB into the night.

Hugs shoofly.

I am listening to the rain, drinking hard cider, and being serenaded by boy bands/Britney on Pandora. This feels so right, lol. I could be productive but why would I be?

[mommadukes]

pool day then dinner w my family for father's day

[stephreloaded]

The ex came on Friday night so he could see DD's play on Saturday. Then Saturday was CRAZY. I was up to go to tennis at 450am. Then I had school until 2pm and then I had to go to DD's parent's teacher conference. THEN I realized that I had fucked up and didnt get the notarized letter so DD could leave the country. I ended up being able to fix stuff but at around 8pm. Then I went to take DD and the ex to the airport and DD was soo upset with leaving. She never cries but this time she kept saying that she didn't want to leave be and cried her eyes out which made me cry too. The ex was kind of pissed and was very insensitive with DD.

Today, tennis at 6am again, then I went to pick up an aunt, then I had to teach an English class and then I took my dad out for lung for father's day. He always wanted to try this new place so we went there. It was awful. I chilled for a bit in the afternoon and now I'm doing homework.

Clearly, I want a day of doing NOTHING.
