Dropping by to say hello. Can't believe it's October already. Goodness.
My emotional life is in total upheaval. It's all I can manage to work, care for my son, see him off to bed, and veg out in front of the TV. I can't even read longer than a few minutes before falling into exhausted sleep.
My imminent ex-husband is a nutjob, plain and simple. I had been picking up our son every day from his apartment on my way home from work. He was belligerent and uncooperative, and made the pick-up process hell. I can't even get into stories about that, or else I'll be here all night reliving the madness.
Our last court date was meant to address his petition for immediate possession of our son. It resulted in Alex remaining with me for the duration. Also, instead of me picking up Alex from his apartment everyday and dealing with him incessantly tormenting me by being argumentative and difficult, my ex was ordered to drop off our son at my parents' house--where my son and I are staying--every evening so there would be no interaction between us.
That was a BIG load off my shoulders. A month later, I feel like a new person. Wow. I'm no longer the emotional shambles i had been. I feel a little bit of healing has been accomplished. But I also discovered the wounds are barely closed. Had some drama with the ex last night that ruffled my feathers. But I've worked out solutions, and manaed to let the ball roll where it will, following my ex's own momentum. We'll see where that takes us.
