So sorry to hear you are going through this. But I am so glad to see you are looking out for you first and foremost. I've had several friends in the last few years get divorces and just because they wanted it done, didn't really look out for themselves and now they are regretting it.

I saw my divorce attorney today. She was quite impressed with the arsenal I brought her and told me how "busy" I've been. I should've told her that I learned all I know in regards to what I needed to get my hands on from the peas. She couldn't believe I'd even pulled my credit, changed my will, and had medical/financial POA's done along with my advanced medical directive.
For as much as I still don't know and for how much uncertainty there still is...I almost feel ahead of the game.
Had a hair appointment this morning. Didn't eat breakfast or lunch...but just had dinner.
I may take Sunday "off". Sleep late. Maybe go to the movies. Maybe meet a friend for dinner. DS leaves for NYC tomorrow morning...so I've got a few days to run things on whatever schedule I see fit. No school schedule. No rehearsal schedule.

Good luck, Jenny. Wishing you happiness in your new life. You sound like you've got it together, but never hesitate to come here and vent a bit.

Damn Jenny. I'm so sorry.
So many men hit this "phase" that I've sincerely come to think of it as a type of male menopause. They lose their ever loving minds and are worse than they were when they were going through puberty.
Mean Girls in Middle School. Mean men in middle age.
Peanut butter crackers (or something similar) are easy to get down when you're extremely stressed.

I am so sorry to read this. You will be amazed when you look back in a few years, though, how much better you will feel about where life has taken you. Divorce is difficult, and it doesn't matter if you are the one who asked for the divorce or if he was, but it is like a new lease on life. I look back now and just wish I had left sooner. I don't have any regrets. Sending you hugs as you navigate this difficult chapter in your life. But it's just that, a chapter, the rest of the story is yet to be written. A happy ending can definitely be in your future.

Be patient with yourself. Adjusting takes time. There's a reason they say not to make drastic decisions during this time.
Interesting what Volt said about food causing memories, it's true. Another one for me was music. At first I couldn't listen to music, it brought too many memories back. Then I made a point to find new music that had no associations with it.

All good thoughts going out to you as you adjust- from what you have posted here you sound amazingly organized, which is not the same thing as saying you do not need compassion and time to rest and regroup. As previous posters have said, the high road is a lot less stressful- imagine how much extra energy your ex has to expend making up stuff to take umbrage over when you give him no ammunition (like helping him out after his accident, picking up his rental). I hope you get a bit of peace soon.
