So tired of pretending

Over this past weekend I realized just how emotionally exhausted I am. I know that the end is near for my marriage, I know that there will be peace in less than 2 months. But it doesn't help the absolute exhaustion I feel now. I am tired of smiling at AHH. I am tired of making SS lunch and dinner. I am tired of pretending it is all going to be alright. I feel like a Stepford wife, without the sex. At least those women got laid!!! I don't want to live in a battle zone so I will keep on pretending. I just really need a break...

Any luck with the new place? I know you said you didn't get the one you initially wanted but haven't seen your update if you posted it.

I have a custody hearing with my bios dad next month so I am waiting for that to be done before I move...

I hope for your sake that it gets resolved that day, I know the second time we went through quite a few court dates before anything was decided. Hang in there, you are almost done!

It's hard not to make dinner for everyone if I am making it for me and my kids. It's not worth fighting every morning over packed lunches either. It just is what it is for now.

Really, this is a much needed post for me. I like the suggestion which you write in this post with creative assumptions. I love learning and I applied these all on my studies.
