Cat & Mouse AKA the moment you all predicted...

WELL, its here, the moment of Truth and Divorce.

Husband is playing a game of Cat and Mouse and revealing himself here and there. 

Apparently his big plan is to get a job as soon as unemployment runs out. And he will work on home improvements and keep track of time and labor, sell the house, divorce me and have a "fresh start". Sometime in the next who-knows.

But he would stay with me if I admit to my wrong-doing, and show him all my phone texts.

aka - word from pasty face Clove:

SO its been a while. Last Monday a bomb was dropped on me (or so I thought...stick around it gets tricky or funny depending) about a previous friend who was planning on filing a restraining order and law suits against Husband.

Never happened, and he finally came clean to me Wednesday morning after calling from his friends house at 4:30 am.

Restraining Orders and Lawsuits aka just another day...

Greetings Steptalkers. 

Without my usual preamble and dry humor that isnt funny, I have some news.

Yesterday in the am (5/19/2025) I was notified via text that a friend of mine who had asked my husband to do some work on her car for her was filing a restraining order and lawsuit against him. We went back and forth and here is the bare bones of what I know and what was said, all between myself and this woman:

- He didnt do the work he said he did, so she didnt pay him and he spent all last week badgering, harrassing and threatening her.

Husband was laid off today...

We will be fine. He promised he would work on the house to make it beautiful (instead of hanging with his dudes?) and that he will liquidate and sell all the cars (6-7 I think, that I know about).

It was because his computer skills are low to nothing and his new job requires everything to be documented and videoed. He said he "tried really hard but it just wasnt something he was able to do".

The pay was fabulous, he had retirement accounts.

It is what it is. Will be looking at the bright side:

Im re-watching while I get through this yucky bug, and "for the fashion" of course. Theres a resurgence in interest in this series...everything old is new again, right? 

Well, NOW I am noticing the step dynamics. Throughout the different seasons, as the characters age, and engage with bio parents, and "that other thing" with the billionair little boy lost and the almost-his-age-step mother. I noticed it mainly in season 5-6.

Good morning. Still a little sick with coughing, but no body aches and fever, so thats a blessing. Slept fitfully, until aboit 10 am. Half the day is gone.

"Dont stop believing" song by Journey is playing as I type this out. The sky is a hazy dreamy soft creamy gray where the sun is trying to emerge, and fog is hugging the hillsides in the distance.

Recap:

Dec 24 Christmas eve. Not much news, calls to my younger brother about their plans to arrive Dec 25 and we should meet up, and we will play it "by ear" as to how Dad is doing.

Hospital, Drs and coughing all the way

Greetings lovely Steptalkers,

This season I have just not had any Christmas Spirit and havent decor-ated still. 

I caught a nasty cold Friday, my Dad went the emergency room Saturday, and now my brother decided to vacation in our lovely seaside resort exactly 15-27.

Things between us are strained. He simply has no use for me and doesnt really enjoy talking with me at all. No arguments have been had. Hes somewhat like that with my parents and it goes back a really long way. Nothing to do with me, just lots of bad things were said to my parents along the years.

Happy Thanksgiving all Steptalkers

Even if you dont celebrate in your country, I am THANKFUL for YOU.

Startng tonight, off for the next two days and then the weekend.

Got started with a work review and a raise.

Ive got TWO Thanksgiving dinners, my family and then DH's considerably larger family. No purchase (which is good because the stores are CRAZY busy) no prep, just show up and eat and hang and leave.

Then a nice little dinner with a friend.

No plans other than to sleep in, and lounge.

UnCuffed during Cuffing Season

Tis almost the season and in our parts, tis the beginning of cuffing season. Cuffing season not in relation to getting arrested, but rather that thing people do during the winter time - coupling up so you have someone to keep you warm on the darl cold nights, someone to bring to thanksgiving dinners, someone to share the holidays with and then MAYBE into the whole new years eve thing. Then after all that you might just want to be single again (lol). Explore those options once the weather brightens and lightens.
