Feel so bad….

I feel so bad hubby just sent me an email from one of his buddies from work who he has known for 20 years.  His wife filed for divorce and he had no idea it was coming.  No idea at all.  I still can’t believe it.  I told hubby to quit lying that isn’t funny.  They were the two people who you would least expect it from.  They did everything together.  They would go out for drinks and invite hubby and he wouldn’t invite me.  I would have to run into their town though so I thought no biggy since I didn’t want to have two cars there.  She said it was the things he did/didn’t do.  How they always did stuff he wanted to do and not things she wanted to do.  She lost her mom this past fall and said he wasn’t as supportive as he could have been.  To be honest I think her mother’s death really had an impact on her and I am hoping it’s just a stage.  These two people are really nice.  I like her alot more than his first wife.  Between the two of them they have seven kids.  None together, but the youngest is a senior in high school.  They say alot of divorces happen when the kids move out.  I just feel so bad because they are such nice people.  They seemed to always get along and have a great time together.  It just blew me away.  I told hubby I didn’t believe him and he told me to check the circuit courts.  I did and it was on there.  I just can’t believe it.

Then hubby starts going in on me.  Are you going to do this to me.  I told him never it’s not an option. Although sometimes I think if he doesn’t help me out with the kids I am leaving.  But it’s funny I never think divorce.  I always think a break.  I just can’t believe it.  He said he is 100% certain she is leaving and not looking back.  I really am hoping it’s a stage in her life where she just needs some time to think things thru and figure out if this is really something she wants.  He said he loves her more than ever and she changed his whole life for the better.  I just can’t believe it. I will keep you posted on what happens.  I am hoping for the best for both of them that they can get thru this difficult time.  It’s a 2nd marriage for both and they have been married 12 years.  I am serious when I say this, but I don’t know if she will find anyone better than him.

Well I am off to fold and put away clothes.   I have made my bean cassorle for tomorrow and am enjoying the peace and quite before the kids come home from school.  No snow yet, but lots of rain.  Hopefully it won’t freeze tonight.  It’s foggy too.  Older son has a wedding he is in tomorrow.  Rehersal is tonight out in the boonies.  So hopefully the weather will hold up. 

Merry Christmas

That’s so sad about your friends marriage. I learned in Sociology this past semester that the majority of divorces happen around the 7 year mark, and then at the 20 year mark, which is scary, because hubby and I will hit 20 in July of 2007. Hopefully this woman will reflect back on things and maybe talk to a professional about her mom. It’s just so sad! Hugs,
