Eight Months In
Here we are. It's been about 8 months now and it seems we are finally begining to make some progress. Small steps but steps nonetheless. He does in fact have a buyer for the house and I signed the contracts dutifully. Taxes were a bit of an issue as I refused to file without seperation papers as you may remember from a previous journal. Well April 15 approached with no papers so.... no taxes. Gotta love extensions though I could certainly use the stimulus package ;). All in due time. He and the girls have been seeing each other regularly which, as we all know, makes me deleriously happy. Don't get me wrong, there are good days and bad days. Some days are out and out delusional (not the good kind) but I think we are both getting the hang of this now. His new girlfriend is in the picture a bit more and I'm doing extraordinarily well with that. I'm not about to throw him a party but hey, I do want him to be happy. As for me I've decided to stop swearing off men although I'm not entirely sure what that means just yet. I do find myself thinking, "it would be so much better to (fill in activity here) with someone." On the flip side of that coin I also find myself gravitating toward the negativity I feel for men in general. Maybe I can find somebody I can just take or leave at will although I'm not holding my breath on that one. Sometimes the best course of action is no action at all.
