What I'm getting for Christmas

[BlueDaisy]

My Christmas present this year isn't one that I want. Hubby and I are separating, pending a probable divorce. Well, separation was my idea (but not at Christmas), but hubby took it a big step further and wants a divorce. That'll have to wait until after the bankruptcy and stuff, but I guess that is in the offing for me. *sigh*

Two of the kids and I will be getting a townhouse with some friends of ours and their baby son. Gonna be a tight squeeze, but hopefully more pleasant than what life has been like around here lately (long story).

So, Merry Christmas to you folks, or Happy Hanukkah,...but just say "howdy" to me, if you please. I'll skip Christmas this year. Oops...with my son, can't totally skip it, but I'll do the best I can.

Sorry for the whiny thread. Anyone else with any whiny things, post away! Join me in my pity party?

Hugs....

Thanks, Seb. I appreciate that. I'll try to keep that in mind over the next couple of weeks....and months.

Welcome to Lit, by the way. Merry Christmas to you, too.

((((((((((Daisy))))))))))) I know some of what has been going on and I am so sorry that this is happening to you. Hang in there, things will get better. I am resolved to make 2005 a lot better year than 2004 was! I will hope and pray that the same goes for you.

MERRY CHRISTMAS

So sorry to hear you are down this time of year. But just look deep into your kids eyes and see all that "LOVE' that should put a "BIG SMILE ON YOUR FACE" If you need someone to talk to I'm here.

Good for you! Congratulations! No need to be grumpy. Be happy...you're beginning a whole new chapter in you life. There was a problem and there no longer is. Keep thinking positive...this is a GOOD thing!

Make the Best Out of a Bad Situation! You celebrate X-Mas with the kids and you have the best time possible....do it! Really...do something fun...don't you dare let anything get you down. Life is too short (I found that out a few months ago) to waste precious time being down.

Sorry

Hi,
I am pretty new here & was a bit surprised to see a thread that was not advertising something sexual.... a bit of a nice change anyway.

I feel for you. This Christmas I will be home by myself for the 3rd straight year after my ex took all the blood that used to go through my heart. Then she took my mojo!

Have a look at my thread if you like. I am in Dallas.

Whatever you decide to do..... good luck w/ it. The pain sucks but, someday it subsides. (Or so I have been told)

Hehe.....yeah, those typos or misreadings can follow us for years if we aren't careful. I have a friend who made a typo and the word she accidentally wrote instead of the one she meant wound up becoming her email address! So now she has to explain it to anyone new she meets where email comes up in conversation, etc.

Hugs and many thanks to those of you who have offered kind words of encouragement and cyberhugs. I really appareciate all of you.

Toni...you, sweetie, have been following my tales of marital woes for over a year now. Thank you for always being there to help pick up the pieces that are me *wry grin*.

And of course, welcome to the newbies. Lit is a wonderful place. So many interesting and helpful people. There are very few Litizens I've met whom I wish I hadn't. The majority are just real, normal folks.

So sorry things are going this way for you.

I'm not real new here, but I do feel for you in what you are going through. And I agree with past posts here, things will get better.

Thanks, texcat. Long time no "see" (and I like what I see in your av!)

Hugs to you and all who post here.

I am hoping this terrible time is followed by a new start... new opportunities

Thanks, wordsmithe. How ye be? Haven't seen you around in a while. Of course, I haven't been around much lately, myself.

The good news is, he misses me, and may regret letting me and our son move out of the house. I can still hope. Now I just have to decide how I feel about that. *sigh*

Some wise sage once said: if you taste the milk and it has soured, putting it back in the fridge and trying it next week probably won't change the result.

If it is over, move on; if it is not yet soured, and it would make you happy, go back.

However, I have been wrong before, so don't listen to me!

Interesting, about the milk thing. Never heard that before. Makes sense, though.

I don't know if it would make me happy to be back or not. I keep asking myself the same thing I've read many times over the years in Dear Abby columns (or was is Ann Landers?).....I ask myself if I'll be better off with him or without him. Hard question. In some ways I'm better off without him, in other ways I'm not better off without him. Go figure.
