Well she called 3 times lastnight to check on the kids, then went out on her date I guess.<P>She called just a few minutes ago to tell me when she was getting off work and what time she was going to come get the kids.<P>She then asked me if I wanted to go eat lunch with them at her grandmothers. DAMN, what do you day to that? I said yes, but probably should of said no. ( So I'm weak)<P>Well just wanted to update everyone. I did just fine with both f them. I sure have a lot of respect for all you single moms now.<P>------------------<BR>brownphdt<P>

Told you you'd be fine!!! ![[Linked Image from marriagebuilders.com]](http://www.marriagebuilders.com/forum/images/icons/wink.gif) <P>Now, on to lunch. You've accepted. You obviously want to go. <P>PLAN A YOURSELF TO DEATH. Like FHL said on Nicole's post. Feel what you need to feel, but ACT on your goals (or something like that - I really did like that a lot!)<P>No lovebusting, no matter how much you want to. No fussing, no disrespect. Take what comes and go w/ the flow - nicely.<P>And yes, I know how hard it really is. But you can do it!!! Just like w/ the kids. (Wait until they're TEENAGERS!!!!)<P>Good luck to you.<P>Lori

Well I'm back. It went alright, but then again it sucked. She didn't even sit by me. She sat on the other side of the table.<P>Sheba I didnt expect any thing from this, Really I dont even know why she asked. I didnt ask that either.<P>I did have to listen to her talk to on of her men on the cell phone. Her saying I paged you three times last night, He must have said the Batterys were dead, cause she said well Put new batterys in it.( HA HA HA HA )He got the page, He just used the Classic line.<P>Any way her family said they were glad to see me again and that I could stop by any time, I said ok and the y said they really ment it.<P>------------------<BR>brownphdt<P>

Good for you, you made it through. Even w/ her rude accepting of those calls!! I'm so proud of you.<P>Now you see you can really do this, right? Takes a lot of time, but you can.<P>Hang in there. And have an extra hug today.<P>{{{{{{{{{{{{brownphd}}}}}}}}}}}}<P>Lori
