I guess the only "angel" left is to be Bosley. I guess I can play the frumpy old man <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Or can I be Charlie... the voice on the phone. No wait I think that voice belongs to CJ <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />. Where has CJ been anyway?

It would be a great idea about the readings from Beattie's book. It would also help others who are just beginning this battle.

Rin you are doing a great job... keep it up. Good things are on the horizen.

Still

I usually keep the book in my backpack so it's with me at work. When it's not under my pillow, anyway. Good stuff.

Hang in there, Rin. Friday will be here soon.

Hey Rin,

When does the hourly count down begin?

Don't forget to get Mimi on the book club list. That woman reads some great stuff!!

Rin-
I am praying that all goes well on Fri... it would all be starting/over then... you would have your house! How great is that!?!

I have not been posting much lately, but you sound like you are doing great, keep it up!

Still- I think Mimi is Charlie, if I remember correctly!
So Bosley's still open...LMAO

SD-I REALLY appreicate the book idea, b/c yesterday afternoon, I hada little down period. I was feelinga little guilty b/c I filed for D. So, I read a little and had to remember that the guilty is not mine...

I was trying to trust an untrustworthy person, who repeated hurt me time and time again and that things were becoming more abusive, the more that I fought for my M.

BUGS!! I have to be there for 8:30 tomorrow morning, so the countdown is 25 hours to go! LMAO <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Sadmo- Thank you so much for your prayers, as well as everyone else's...L asked this morning if it was time to move back into our house...F is worried about how mad his dad is going to be tomorrow...

I told him that if he was that uncomfortable that he didn't have to go and he could tell his dad that...he asked if I was crazy and said that he couldn't tell his dad that he didn't want to go...so I left it at that!

I tell you guys, it has been a REALLY BUSY week and I know that it's a good thing b/c it gives me less time to think about court and the whole process...

Last night was suppose to be our night off from having to go anywhere and I ended up helping F with his homework until 9:30...Then, I have some calls to make, and it was 11 before I got into bed...

Today, I have my meeting with my Lawyer at 3, then, I have two meeting tonight, one of which is a board meeting...then I have some more calls to make to let my mom know what's going on and what the lawyer thinks will happen tomorrow as well as some friends...

I have Sponsor and another friend going with me tomorrow for support, then we'll probably do lunch, and then, tomorrow night I'm going eat sushi with another friend of mine...

So, I've got enough things to do to keep my mind from wondering in directions that it doesn't need to! LMAO <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

I hope all of you have a wonderful day and THANK YOU FOR ALL OF THE SUPPORT!!!!

Well, so far so good, just got a call from my lawyer...have to do some paperwork to be turned in this afternoon for TOMORROW...

I wish they would have given me a little more time to do it...

They also asked that Sponsor come with me this afternoon...I had already asked her to come with me anyway...so that's a good thing too!

They also asked about CS, if I had gotten it this month, of course, I haven't...

The para sounded so rushed...she said that my lawyer had called her last night, rattling off things that we needed to do...

So, I have a full day at work and now I have the paperwork to do also...

Things are progressing...I have some hope that tomorrow will happen...

Light at the end of the tunnel.

one more for you (MB and Jesus would be a more appropriate title <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> )

Thank you! I listened to them! I really appreciate it!

I got that paperwork finished, and faxed over...so now, I'm just swamped with work! LMAO

I have to admit I started feelings a little nausea and I have a little anxiety now! I'll be fine...I was feeling fine until they called...

I'm glad that it appears to be coming together!

Hey, Rin.

Thinking of you, glad you have a busy day to keep you occupied!

Not too long and you'll have some certainty -- that will be nice. Maybe you could mention to STBX that the boys are worried that he'd be angry tomorow. Maybe even have the lawyers pass the message through each other if you need to. That way he might not be short with them, even if it's just to prove YOU wrong. If you think he really will be likely to take out any anger on them, then you might even have the lawyers work out a switch to the schedule, trade weekends or something so he has time to cool off. Then again, maybe the schedule will get adjusted enough that the kids don't end up having to go with him on Friday, anyway.

The kids seem to be pretty involved in a lot of the details -- seems like lots of what-ifs for them to deal with (if you get the house, then dad said he'll live in a trailer, if you don't get the house, if dad gets 50/50 custody .... etc.). How are they doing with all that uncertainty? It's stressful for ME to think about, and I don't have to live it day to day, I bet it's much harder on you all.

Hang in there, one more day! You've really done a great job getting through all of this.

-AmI.

Good luck, Rin!

You are prepared and are going to do great, Rin.

Hi AmI, Thank you, I had plan on mentioning this to my Attorney about the boys! I have a list of questions that I want to ask...

I'm tight on time today! Sorry guys if my posts are short!

SD And Chrisner--Thank you gentlemen for stopping in and supporting me...it means SOOO much...

Well, I've got two hours to wrap things up at work fro today and tomorrow...WHHHEEEEOOO!

let me get out of here...so far I'm still feeling fine...like Ami said...LMAO...it's b/c I'm occuppied!

it's pouring outside with the hurricane that came in but it's still a good day! <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Glad for you, Rin. You sound so great, really really great.

Sis

Rin,

YOu are ready. I can't think of much more to say.

Ummmm, oh, YOU ROCK! <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

July 26th--Owning Our Power

"Freedom and joy are ours for the taking, for the feeling, for the hard work we have done."

LMAO...Hi SIS and SL...

I'm getting out of here in a few minutes...think I got work wrapped up fro the next few days...

Co-worker keeps telling me to slow down...LMAO...

SL, thanks for the reading I'll read that one as soon as I can...I saw it in the index and looked right over it...

Alright guys, I've try to give an update sometime tonight about what my lawyer thinks will happen...

THANK YOU ALLL!!!!

Rin,

Can't wait for the update. What time is court tomorrow?

You know everyone here, those that post and those that don't, are all pulling & praying for you!!

Keep smilin'. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Thinking of you, Rin. Good luck tomorrow.

Fox

T-2,804.5 hours to court for me. But who's counting?

good luck Rin.

Hi, guys, it's been a really rough day...I just walked in the door...

here's the deal...so far I have custody...CS is determined...

Problem we are having to deal with is: use of the house and spousal support, and there was another issue but I can't remember what it was, I was SOOOO upset...

My lawyer is confusing and I really don't like him...I'm going to have a talk with him in the morning....

I think that he was trying to convince me to give in on the house...wanting me to look at the bigger picture, saying that it's just a house not a home...that the boy's will be asking once we move into the house when's dad moving back in...then it will turn to blaming me in the long run...

One: he doesn't know my KIDS...

So, I have to deal with him tomorrow morning...I'm pissed right now that I think I have things straight in my head...

There is a plan and we are going to play the game...8:30am...I have to be at my lawyer's office at8am...

I have to finish some paperwork...

Both my meeting went well...Oh, come to finds out the last CS I got was fronted my POWS mom! My attorney also told me that she speaks highly of me...I think that she's fronting POWS on this stuff b/c she feels guilty!

Well, If I think of anything else I'll posted it!

I need some rest...can't go looking like a GODDESS if I'm tired...attire's already picked out...and I still have to call my mom and let her know what my attorney had to say...

It's been a LONNGGGGG DAY!!!

Please pray to soften POWS heart...
