Hi,

Things are good. I'm a little scared of the future, but things overall are good.

I'm stressed about finances, like everyone these days, but I'm also well aware I have multiple ways to build a small 2nd income stream.

And if we have to relocate out of this city, we are OK.

The kids are good. I had a very good heart to heart with our daughter yesterday. I worry about her not having a mom figure. Our daughter is very firm; things are so much better, I was the source of support all along, there are girl/women things she will need to talk to someone about at times but if I can take her to a female doctor that is fine, she has women in her life she is comfortable talking to, and this is truly what she wants, she wants to be with me and things are better no-contact.

I said, what if we have to leave this house? Is it just being home that you want? Absolutely not. She wants to be with me. So, we finished with a family meeting where I promised all of them, I am with them to the end, and they will each have my complete support. We are all going to be OK.

And you know what? Increasingly I believe that myself. I'm a smart guy, I have a ton of industry contacts, and my health is still good.

Did I tell you the oldest is going to go to college? Isn't that good? He feels stable enough to go to college!

I'm entering a bunch of mindless stuff at work and listening to podcasts and You Tube.

I just listened to this. This is what brought me to the forum because I had to share it.

Holy Moley......... This is my life. I just about fell over with some of these descriptions, ESPECIALLY the one about it always being the husbands fault that there is no closeness. There are years of that.
