My Stuff
I moved the last of my stuff out of the garage today and found myself getting emotional...even more so then when I moved my day-to-day stuff out. I've been trying to figure out why. It's not that I'm still pining for Nancy or that I even want to be back in that environment. I know a part of it is the end of the end but something just hit me...it ( Read more... ) -
Monthly Post?
Has it really been more then a month since I posted last? I keep saying I need to write more and yet I don't. *grumble* I spend so much time in Twitter I forget about LJ and yet 140 characters isn't always enough ( Read more... ) -
Oh Yes
there are worse things than
being alone
but it often takes decades
to realize this
and most often
when you do
it's too late
and there's nothing worse
than
too late.

Guess That Wasn't My Final Divorce Post :-p
I came across an article tonight with a paragraph I can't get out of my head:
"Because ultimately, marriage is not about getting something -- it's about giving it. Strangely, men understand this more than we do. Probably because for them marriage involves sacrificing their most treasured possession -- a free-agent penis -- and for us, it's the ( Read more... ) -
Final Divorce Post?
I signed the divorce decree three weeks ago and it was signed by a judge the following week. It wasn't a sad day, my main emotion was relief; but it also became an introspective day. I thought about the happy days. I thought about Sean and Kaleigh. I thought about the bad decisions we both made and the hurt we both caused. Hopefully in time ( Read more... ) -

Grieving
I've been told by a number of people that just when you thought you were dealing with the end of a relationship, WHAM it would bitch slap you in the face once again. That is what has happened over the last couple of days and unfortunately for her, gretchen_marie bore the brunt of it. I think it stared when Nancy all of a sudden became chatty and we fell back ( Read more... ) -
One Last Christmas
Email I wrote to Nancy after an argument tonight. She wanted to know why I didn't send her presents in the name of the kids like she managed to get to me. Ultimately it serves no purpose to send it to her but I want to remember the answer.
When we went out for your birthday this year I got emotional. You later asked why and I said, "I have a ( Read more... ) -
Cranky Old Man
I probably shouldn't post this considering 90% of the people who follow me are female but I am getting tired of the attitude divorced males (or males in general) can't take care of themselves ( Read more... ) -
I'm up and it's stupid o'clock again
Kids are here tonight and enviously they are asleep. We celebrated Sean's birthday at my mom's Saturday night even though it's two days before his real birthday. His birthday was going to be celebrated Monday night at a local pizza place (by tradition) but later moved to Nancy's parent's house. No problem, I've been there a thousand times. ( Read more... )
