I’m already up to season 2 ;)

Maybe I ought to just set up a calendar goal. Get to mid-January before you call. Then I can pretend I will call one, but by the time the date rolls around I won’t want to anymore.

Guh, I’m so sorry you went through that. I see what you mean about the cruse/blessing.

Well, an update: the divorce continues and while I am heartbroken I’ve managed to go on with my life and even keep up with reading for law school. May even get to turning in my second memo early! Finals here I come...

Book of Shadows.

Ugh, yeah, walking that line for all of law school just sounds awful. First day of orientation a Dean said “if you’re in a bad relationship: get out.” Even then my ears perked. At least this only went on for the first semester of my 1L - I can’t imagine what you went through navigating that for all three years.

Ironic timing: I JUST put the first episode of Buffy on following a workout. I think I too shall work my way through the whole damn show again :)

Thank you for the recommendations.

She was his first, though he did ditch her with me for the last five months while he’s been living his bullshit AirBnb dream. I would fight him for her but don’t think it’s worth it. He’s already said he’d take me to court over the cat. I don’t need that hateful, angry nonsense in my life :/

I am stealing your list!

Thank You! Both for the song recommendation and the “WTF?!”

This is great advice. It’s something I’ve already started to do, but should definitely focus on for a time. I’ve taken friends to restaurants he bitched about going to. Bought furniture he didn’t like that I thought was lovely. Even installed a curtain in the bedroom closet that he said I shouldn’t install as he felt w…

I didn’t even get the worst bit: He’s Taking The Cat!

Thanks. I thought about posting here right after it happened but wasn’t quite ready to. Glad I can speak about it a bit more. Talking it out helps!

A false sense of comfort.

Thanks. Trying to focus on this as an opportunity to get to know myself again, even through dumb little things. What kind of bookends or coffee tables do I like? Why kind of meals do I enjoy cooking on my own? How do I like to spend my evenings? I’d structured everything of the past 8 years has been through the lens…

Listening to all those now! Thanks ;)

My husband moved the last of his stuff out this weekend. It’s been a month since he surprise announced his intent to divorce and it feels like he’s been moving at lightning speed. The house feels empty and it’s really beginning to sink in that this is happening and I’m going to be progressing through life without him…

Hah! Thanks!

Hah! One plus of being an older law school student: I own my own damn grownup house with a grownup office.
