Thank you for these words. It feels like you knew exactly what I needed. I don’t feel like things will change and if anything it’s not getting better. It was not a light decision but he seems to think this is an easy and quick decision.

Easy and quick? Interesting. Is he part of the decision making? If you do decide to separate will he play the victim? Jeez…you have labored over what to do.

Checking in late. It wasn’t a great day to start. There was much uncivil talk and I finally told him that I don’t expect him to leave. I will. He now says he doesn’t want to lose me and will do anything. He once again has agreed to therapy but also marriage counseling. This afternoon he was attentive and not a dick. I told him this is it for me. This is the last chance I can do. He talked about getting guitar lessons. He has 2 and can play a bit but never learned to read music or anything. I’m fully supportive of him finding an interest. I hope he holds true to everything he said today and we can make it out on the other side. When I talked to C she said I better be ready to hold up what I’m saying and I know she is right. We watched the new Sandra Bullock movie on Netflix tonight and it was really good

I forgot to add this picture yesterday. It’s a old hatchback mustang from the 70s. I had never seen a mustang with a hatchback. I sent the picture to my dad because I knew he would appreciate it also. He did and let me know the reasoning. The company put the hatchback on it so the insurance company wouldn’t classify it as a muscle car and insurance rates would be lower. He said they were only made for a few years. The guy came out when I was taking pictures and had a good laugh. It’s in some phenomenal shape to be from the 70s!

That’s awesome! I love cars too. Mustangs are fun; for me I’m more of a Camaro guy (if I had to choose between the two).
In the meantime for my gear head fun I drive a manual transmission Elantra. Not as powerful as a Mustang but at least I get to shift

I have 2 stories from that.
1- my first car was suppose to be my moms 92 beautiful blue Camaro but the ignition switch went out and she ended up getting a new car and I ended up with a Toyota Tercel. Which I loved and appreciated BUT I really wanted that dang Camaro
2- my dad tried to teach me to drive a stick but I got stuck on a hill and almost rolled back into another car. I was so freaked out I refused to ever try again! Granted the car was from the 80s and the shift would get stuck. He didn’t pick the best car to teach on lol
Have a good day Matt!

Wow that would freak me out too! Yeah the transmission needs to be functional. Every transmission has its quirks but some are reeeeeeally quirky - and that is not the one to learn on

Checking in. My day started off rocky in the way of me not wanting to do anything!! I ended up doing stuff though. I laid for the couch for a long while but finally forced myself out of the house. Got the outside faucet covers so our pipes are ready for winter, got the hubs last present I had been holding out on, found and scheduled an appt with a marriage counselor for next week, ran a bit over 3 miles, cleaned a bit, waiting on a pot roast to finish now. The hubs did what he said he would. He called his insurance and they are emailing him a list of covered doctors/therapist. Oh!! And I ordered a few more Christmas hats because for some reason I could only find 3 of mine from the years past. Gonna read a bit and peruse around here then go to bed. I appreciate good days so much

Checking in. No complaints here. Got my jeep inspected, did a really good workout/run, did some reading, went to eat with the hubs and we had a really good conversation when we got home. He had a drink while we ate but it didn’t bother me. The pictures on the menu felt more triggering.

I am a huge fan of pictures on menus. Though for me it’s more about breakfast places. I love seeing the meal I’m ordering. (Breakfast is by far, by far my fave meal of the day.)
No pictures and I know I’m paying a premium for my food. Stuffy reading-obsessed boutique restaurant types

Checking in. Not that worst day, not the best. I can’t remember if I already told y’all about my schedule mistake. My boss knows I work all the holidays because I like the double pay. She asked me a while back if I still wanted to this year and I was like sure. I did NOT look and see what day the holidays are. Christmas is a Saturday and not my normal weekend. I’m so mad at myself for not looking and also mad at my boss for not being like hey did you realize this because I feel like she knew I wouldn’t want to work a weekend I don’t normally. Anyways, I get it’s ultimately my fault but because of the mistake I have 3 days off until the end of December. I’m so frustrated with myself.
