And how was YOUR weekend?

And how was YOUR weekend?

Despite the miserable weather, my weekend WAS running pretty smooth until Sunday. I got out of work early on Friday and went to the gym to relax and kick back. Saturday my brother and his family came by and we visited Lowes and had lunch together. Husband was around and seemed in good spirits, so things were relaxed. Sunday I went to some punk show with my other brother in Bellmore - it was a riot! When I was coming back from the show (in a very good mood), you could hear the screech of my brakes in the street outside of my house. MIL's car was in the driveway! I was like '***?'. Apparently since my Ohio trip, she's been sneaking over to visit with sunny boy while I'm out. I guess they weren't expecting me to be home so early. I didn't know what to do, if I should go into the house or not. So I sat like an idiot in the driveway for a few minutes. My neighbor thankfully was having a BBQ and called me over, telling me she tried to give me the heads up on my cellphone that the old crumudgen was over. I told her I had to go get my jacket but I'd be right back. I walked right past them in the living room, I did manage a faint 'hello' which MIL/FIL prompty turned their heads away, like the 4th graders they are or like they just whiffed a pile of turd! I left for the neighbors and saw them drive away about an hour later. Husband sheepishly wandered over to the neighbors and asked if he was invited too and then proceeded to act like all was swell! Then we spent all day Monday fighting over his family's b.s. and how they can even go there, to come into my house and act like I don't freaking exist! Completely disrespectful! Remind me again why I'm in the middle of a divorce/separation!?! Oh yeah, he thinks I should be grateful that he's stood up to them 1x in the 10 years we've been together and he even had the balls to say that 1/2 of what they've done to me, I deserved! Jerk!

Try not to stress. I know a lot easier said then done, but just do your best to relax. Maybe take all of your energy and put it into a nice work out at the gym or maybe do a little shopping.

Try and relax and dont let him or anyone else get to you

I can't really stop them from coming over per say, but it bugs the crap out of me when they are there because they used to 'sneak' over when I wasn't there. I haven't been allowed in their home for eons, so I sort of feel violated when they are in mine because she'll walk around and open up my cabinets, files, etc. Plus they treat me like something the dog deposited on the floor, even in my own home! I guess they don't feel like they have to work to avoid me since I'll be out of their lives soon enough, but it makes me more relieved over my decision to get on with it. Every once in awhile I sort of backpedal and hope (cause he does have his good days where he makes me laugh and tries hard to get me to give in) that MAYBE things could work out. Then I'll have a reminder like Sunday and well, you know how it goes...
