I'm sorry you had a rough morning jpr. I feel the same way about my son. Is he going to be ok, how does he feel, am I being a good mom? He is my rock and I hate when my stbx has him. They are very close though so I know he's happy there. I just never thought that my baby growing up in a broken home was possible. I still can't believe it's real most of the time.
He is getting picked up in 30 minutes but he will be back tomorrow because of Mother's Day. I hope your weekend goes well for you.

jpr... you're are a terrific mom. Your son is a very lucky boy to have someone like you in his life. That will never change.

I've said so in the PM I sent you. You're amazing.

Awwwwww....thanks for the hug, Bandit. Very nice.

Yes, he has definitely been giving me several reasons this week for why he is a piece of poop.

For instance, today's reasons
Reason #1768 Why my Ex is Piece of Poop:
He won't sign the separation paperwork so that I can close on my house.

I am trying to refinance, and I am supposed to close on Tuesday. The separation papers were finalized and agreed upon weeks ago. He won't sign them. He says that he has to speak with his lawyer first...again! ...even though the papers haven't changed since the last time he amended them with his lawyer.

Earlier this week...
Reason #1763 Why my Ex is a Piece of Poop

I had an appointment after work, and I needed someone to watch my son. I don't have any family here. My ex is always going on and on about how much he loves spending time with our son...and what a great dad he is...blah blah blah. But, when I asked him if he could pick up our son from the nanny on Monday so I could go to my appointment, he refused. He told me that he needs to "protect his time". ...grrrrr...

I just shrugged it off and rescheduled my appointment. It is better than my son doesn't spend much time with him. I would prefer if my ex didn't have much influence on my son. My worst fear is that my son will grow up to be an unhappy, emotionally detached, piece of poo like his father.

grrrrr...

Excuse my language. I am a little angry today.

Thanks, Cantmove.

I know. It is so surreal. When I was pregnant, I never in a million years would have thought I would be getting a divorce. I never thought this would happen.

Now I can't wait to get it over with. Amazing how things can change in just a matter of months.

Right now instead of women I think I just need a man hug, although I do miss snuggling with women
