Hi, everyone!
I am back in town staying at my oldest daughter's home. I had a lot of fun this weekend and was sooo blessed. I left town with $20 worth of gas in my car and 75 cents give or take in my wallet. My family and friends really blessed me, fed me, gave me support, and I got to laugh a lot. I stayed at my sister's and we ran around together visiting relatives, my step dad and step brothers whom i haven't ween in three years.
blessed??? My sister put $50 gasoline in my car and gave me $20 cash. I shared with my two step brothers and was bragging on her, and they each gave me $20! I was so surprised and thankful. I tried not to take their money and told them I wasn't hinting for money and started crying. They were so sweet. I have always had a big heart and gave to everyone and gave gifts at Christmas, now it's coming back to me. My sister also gave me a gift card to get a perscripture filled a CVS Pharmacy that I was out of. it was my hormone pills and you women past the age of 50 all know how important that is. By transferring the perscription I got a $25 gift card that i got to give back to my sister. She bought her Halloween costume with the gift card, so she could dress up at her job. I know this is going to work for the best interest of the children, and God will bless me and already has.
Anyway, I really enjoyed my time off and will visit my kids at school lunch time this week then move home on Friday. I can't understand why the judge put the kids back home with him. I guess he must have not sounded so bed to the judge in the judges chambers when our attorneys were trying to come up with a plan. Maybe this will wake him up and help him to seek counseling and change in his disipline tacktics and seek better parenting skills. I doubt he and I will get back together because I don't think he respects me as a woman and person and can change his controlling ways. Some men expect the woman to bow down and call him master, and submit totally and let him make all the decisions. He is from the old school and doesn't like change and modernism.
Well, enough of me and God bless everyone and will read any advise, remarks, opinions, and shared experiences that you want to give. I have been marries more than twice and it seems I keep getting into these abusive relations. I thought this one was better and not abusive, but I was wrong. I am very hurt and dissappointed, and have to grieve my broken marriage and I miss My Husband very much, but I do not miss the oppresion and the control, and I feel a lot lighter and less stressed. This in itself will make me a better mom for my kids.
This is my ultimate goal. I want to be the best mom I can be. I know no one is perfect and I know I ain't, But I want to improve myself, go to counseling and get healing.
