NER Sucktastic suckiness
Blah. Am venting here because I need to stay together at work. The hubz moved out this weekend as planned and it was as hard as I'd expected. Sometimes fun, sometimes sad. I'm glad it's finally done so I can move forward in some direction or another, because I've felt so in limbo since we decided to separate.
He left this morning, will be back in the afternoon to pick up the dog (he gets one, I get one and the cat) and will be gone by the time I'm home from work. We agreed not to be in contact for awhile so I can figure out what I want. Am just going to try to keep busy so am filling up the week with plans. This is definitely the suckiest suck that's ever sucked.

?
I'm so sorry. ?I am sending lots of atheist prayers and hoping this transitional time goes smoothly for you.?
Brookles,
I'm so sorry you're going through this right now. I'm sending gigantic zombie hugs your way.

Chin up! Just remember you a strong person and you will get through this! And we're here for you!
my read shelf:
You have hugs from me too.
I have been there and what you are feeling -the mix of emotions- is quite normal. I remember feeling so relieved it was finally ending but yet sad & lonely at the same time. It will get better of course but what may surprise you is even months down the road the rush of sadness & doubt will hit again. It does take time to fully recover even if you feel you have been successful in moving on.
Wow that sounds depressing but trust me it isn't. I just wanted to prepare you for all of it so you don't wonder if you are not normal.
::hugs:: I'm so sorry you are going through the suckiet of the sucktastic, but you sound at peace with your decision and it will only get better from here. GL and definitely keep busy, you will discover a whole new side of yourself soon enough!
It sure is, isn't it?
I recommend keeping busy today, then letting it all go once you get to your car. It takes energy to hold it all in, so letting it all out was a huge relief for me. I also found I could only sob for so long - a long time, but it had to end at some piont - and then I'd actually feel somewhat better.
Hang in there!
Oh, Brookles... we love you here, you can vent any time, and you don't need to apologize for it! ((((Brookles)))) I hope the time goes smoothly for you.
I'm sure it does suck. And if you have personal or vacation days that you don't already have assigned to something else, it's totally fine to use a couple right now if you want.
I'm so sorry, hon. If you ever need to vent or talk, please know we're here.
Lots of hugs from me. Hang in there.
I'm really sorry you're going through this. The only thing that I can say is that it will get better. I don't know when or how - but it WILL one day.
Hang in there.
I am a runner, knitter, scientist, DE-IVF veteran, and stage III colon cancer survivor.
ugh!!!
I'm sorry! Atleast that "active" part is past. Thinking in terms of milestones can help sometimes. Sounds like things were fairly agreeable between you and him so that is fortunate when having to figure all that crap out. Plans will be nice, but don't wear yourself out in one way if you are already wornout in another. It can also be helpful to just "veg" with your pets at home and commune with your surroundings to ground yourself and your energies. oh and you can always hang out on the nest!
more zombie hugs and cocktails from here too:
hang in there, girl. and vent away. we're here for you.
I think keeping busy is a great plan. You should do some totally indulgent things for yourself and not feel an ounce of guilt
You deserve it x1000.
(((((Big Hugs)))))
Brookles---many positive thoughts going your way. It's definitely a hard situation, no doubt about it, but one I know you have the strength and grace to get through.
Take care of you and know we're here for you!!
?I guess you could share with a friend. ?But, mostly, it's for you.
(((((Brooke)))))
This is probably the hardest part. And just think, while things will still be difficult, everything will probably get better from here on out.
You can always vent here.
All my best.
I'm sorry Brookles.
(((((((((((((((((((((((((HUGS))))))))))))))))))))))))))?
The girls have already said it all. I haven't been around as much lately, but I just wanted to send a big HUG your way too. I agree with pp.....you are a ROCK STAR! Good for you for putting YOU first.
(Sorry about all the caps letters....it's kind of my thing) ;-p
