I am finally having a decent day after a couple of weeks of not doing so well.

Last weekend I felt strong enough to approach and introduce myself to my ex hubby's fiance. I had to do it. I mainly did it for my kids and to let ex know that I'm stronger and not afraid.
When ex sent me 5 emails the other day I wasn't too upset. Ex is trying emotional manipulation again. He sent me pics of the kids, thanked me for them, requested a meet up with me and apologized for his affair(s) in our marriage. Blech! People who don't know the real him might think that he is trying to make amends and be sweet, but it's not true. If I agreed to meet with him, he would use it as an excuse to swear at me or belittle me in some way. Ex has this image to protect and can be very charming, but he's scary and can change quickly into a monster.
Anywho....

Today I took the day off of work to get my kids signed up for school. I also took my kids to see my campus and get my textbooks. I'm taking a class on abuse and trauma, so those books look interesting, but it's going to be emotionally difficult, I think.

So, I feel like I got some things accomplished and spent time with my kids. I'm going to have supper with my entire enmeshed family (siblings and nieces/nephews) now.

I also lined up a date for myself for this weekend. I'm excited and a bit nervous.

One of the best things about this week is that I get to see my beautiful and brilliant T!!
