I need ice for my Manhattan
I need ice for my Manhattan AND for the huge bruise on my arse/hip.

I’m going to Disneyland!
I’m really excited. I haven’t been for years.
Then in March I’m going to Mexico for my birthday! Super excited about that too. It’s been minus 30 here for weeks and I just want to have my ass in the sand and a drink in my hand.
Notsobad, where in Mexico?

Isla Mujeres.
It’s a little island you can see from Cancun.
I was there about 8 years ago with a girlfriend and it was so fun. A neat little Mexican place.
I’ve read it’s become very commercialized so I wanted to take DH before the big ass hotels move in and take up the shoreline.

I feel like my life is on
I feel like my life is on hold for SO. Given I have chosen this but sometimes I wish he'd give me a bit of credit.
I just want to move on. I know he does too but he's stuck in this situation of waiting for the divorce. I am not and there are days that makes it harder.
I am very happy with him as a partner. I want to be with him for the rest of my life. Yep I'm crazy. I just want that life to start asap.
But until that stupid divorce order is finalized WE can't move on together. We can't get married and we can't share a married life.
Its silly stupid perks of being married. Like being together on car insurance - cheaper and 1 bill vs 2. Being able to buy a home together - we need my credit score and his VA benefits (if just the loans they offer). Even just being able to file for taxes together if we so chose which would help me a lot since I'm falling in a higher bracket than him but just BARELY so together we'd be well in the lower bracket.
I'm also terrified of ending up sick again. Thankfully my mother supports my relationship with him but if she didn't then legally he has no ability to even see me if I'm out of it. Let alone ensure that my wishes are followed which we have spoke about in depth.
I'm expecting some negative feedback from this but still helps to just say it because I feel like I can't most times. I know that's just how things are with this kind of situation but it still SUCKS.
DFTT, nothing negative from
DFTT, nothing negative from me, hon. YOU need to do what makes YOU happy.
Is there anything you can have written up legally so he can see you on the (hopefully tiny) chance you become sick?
Thank you. Honestly I'm not
Thank you. Honestly I'm not sure if it's worth it.
On the off (but possible) chance I end up in a hospital again my mom does support him. She has in the past allowed / facilitated letting partners of mine see me. The last time this happened I was working through my divorce and dating someone else. My "husband" didn't care but my boyfriend did. My mom knew I didn't want "husband" to see me and she left my boyfriend in. So thankful it's never been a huge issue. It's just one of those small worries I have. I'm not sure if its worth the cost to speak to our lawyer about it when right now we're all working towards the divorce being done. We're basically waiting on the court hearing which is taking forever.
Thank you though.
DFTT, you are the only one
DFTT, you are the only one who can decide whether or not it's worth it. I've been through some really crappy stuff. But you know what? I'd go back and DO IT AGAIN to be where I am today. Whether or not it's worth it in the long run remains to be seen. If it turns out to NOT be, well, chalk it up to a lesson learned.
Thank you. While I do need
Thank you.
While I do need to vent I do recognize that I am at the end of the day happy. I don't blame my partner for the divorce being delayed. I can see he is actively working on it. He is a good dad to his kids and is very supportive towards me. He works hard and does his part at home too.
The main source of negativity is his ex. I am very lucky that she is not as bad as those I have read about here. While I think she's very possibly a demon sent from hell to suck the joy out of the would, I'd have to say she's a minor one.
Thankfully she isn't an active disruption in our day, more a small cloud that likes to pop up.
It you're worried about the
It you're worried about the sick, you could always sign a medical power of attorney That might help ease at least a bit of the stress you're going through!
Yeah. We've got a couple
Yeah.
We've got a couple piece of paperwork we want to get in order before getting married. I'm trying to hold off so we can do it all with the lawyer in one meeting.
We've discussed prenuptial agreement, power of attorney, healthcare proxy, advance directives, and wills. So a lot of fun to be had.
I'm just a little paranoid because of my job and previous health / life experiences.
That makes sense to me. I'm
That makes sense to me. I'm sorry it's all got you so stressed

Vodka and sugar free Powerade. Everyone thinks I'm gross but I like the electrolytes.
We booked our Vegas vacation last night! I'm so excited!
I have never been to Vegas,
I have never been to Vegas, but would love to hit the Star Trek place!!
Vegas isn't my first choice
Vegas isn't my first choice for a vacation but we are going with some friends who wanted to go. Flight and hotel is $400 for DH and I for 5 days.
Sounds like a bargain! I'm

We’ve been to Vegas lots!
It used to be a ton of fun and cheap.
It’s still fun, depending on who you go with but it’s become soooooo expensive!
Last trip we paid $80 for a bucket of 6 beer at the pool. The waitress don’t come around the tables very often and if you don’t tip them at least $5 every drink, you never see them.
We love Fremont Street and the entertainment of people watching is free.
The tour of the neon museum is fun if you like hearing about old Vegas.

Ugh. 17. A difficult age, at best. Unrequited love? Admission of love from someone 'icky'? Pressure to have sex? Hair growing in weird places? Sigh...
Blonde, here's your Hot Toddy
Blonde, here's your Hot Toddy and I hope you're feeling better soon!!
OMG, what's the deal?? Is there a used gaming store near you? Take the games in and get cash. KEEP THE CASH. They might also buy comic books. I'm willing to come and smack your DH in the back of the head and tell him NO MORE FREAKING GAMES, BOOKS, OR TOYS until Christmas. Of 2020. }:)
Bummer!! Hope that works for
Bummer!! Hope that works for you.
Amaretto with cranberry
Amaretto with cranberry juice, please.
The Good: I have less than a month until DISNEY WORLD!
The Bad: YSS is being tested for mental health issues and possible learning disabilities. I call hogwash on 90% of it, but I'm just the SM so who cares, right? I'll just sit back until someone tells me something.
The Ugly: BM and STBXH should have gone to court this week for their divorce. Why did they have to go to court, you ask? Because they're fighting over a broken-down van that cost them $500 to purchase a few years ago. The thing doesn't run, but STBXH is demanding it in the divorce and BM just can't lose. I want to be a fly on the wall for that.
Oh, and I'm going to share my last name with her if she gets her way in court. Ugh.
Lieutenant, Di Saronno is the
Lieutenant, Di Saronno is the ONLY amaretto served at my bar.
Good: Woo hoo!!!
Bad: W.T.F. I went through a time with PigPen where I definitely cared more than his skanky 'ho mother.
Ugly: DOUBLE W.T.F. Why on earth does BM need to know your last name?? *#&$^!!
P.S.
Now I want to go home and watch Clint Eastwood and Eli Wallach....
You misunderstand, Aniki. BM
You misunderstand, Aniki. BM is changing her last name BACK to DH's when her divorce to STBXH is finalized so she and I will have the same last name.
Can you make my drink a double?
Oh, CRAP. BioHo hyphenated
Oh, CRAP. BioHo hyphenated DH's last name with Mr. Pinhead's. I don't know WHY since Spawn has a different last name from her oldest half-sister, and DH's kids and PigPen. Apparently, their family Christmas greeting read like Santa's Naughty List. Loooooooooooong.
Of COURSE you can have a double, sweetie!
I need something to wake me
I need something to wake me up. Is there a tasty espresso beverage that you can whip me up?
Vent: It's really such a small thing but I get so mad at myself for making stupid mistakes.
I'm building an end table and I put pocket holes along the wrong edges. They won't be seen so it was just a matter of putting them along the correct edges but it pisses me off that I did that. I also have the grain going a different direction than I originally intended. Apparently, I need to focus!
Hereiam, you did not specify
Hereiam, you did not specify hot or cold.
If cold, then I'm serving up Espresso Martinis.
If you want hot, I have a new creation: Aniki's Finnish Coffee.
NO ONE is harder on or meaner to me than myself when I make a mistake. And while no one can see it, WE know we boo-boo'd!!
I will take one of each. I'll
I will take one of each. I'll start with the Espresso Martini, then warm up with your Finnish Coffee.

I just want a full on extra-strength five hour energy... LOL
We found a good lawyer! And the girls have a sleepover Saturday so DH and I will get a WHOLE night ALONE!
Negative... BM is a nightmare and is totally going to snap when she gets served... Also work is stressful, and it doesn't help I don't super desire to be here... Also we have to find money for said lawyer... LOL
Those 5-hour things are
Those 5-hour things are caca!!
Yay on the lawyer!!
I hope BM poops a ring around herself. In public. }:)
I do too! Also to add... DH
I do too!
Also to add... DH just asked me to pull some of my Christmas bonus out of savings... Apparently he "Needs cokes" and I told him the last of my cash until Friday is going to the fur baby's food... His family has this weird aversion to water... But I'm sorry... Cokes are not a need... That's a luxury, that we obviously can't afford. Savings is not being spent unless its an actual need... That's all... I said no. But like seriously. He needs to learn to drink water... This whole "quitting dipping" thing is making him needy. LOL
Gads, PA. Tell him to clean
Gads, PA. Tell him to clean something!! NEEDS cokes, my arse.
Well apparently being on non
Well apparently being on non tobacco and non nicotine dip makes him needy. Ugh! I hope this detox thing speeds up!
Also he should clean something!!! Like the skid's room!!! Because that needs REORGANIZED. It's not super messy, Christmas just still doesn't have a home. LMAO

After the day I have had give
After the day I have had give me anything but make it a double please. I could use a good strong drink right now. And hopefully that drink will help me with the selfish people in this world. If there was one thing in this world I could change it would be for other people to care about other people. And treat them the way they would want to be treated. How hard is that really? Please make that drink soon! Peace and out.
Cheers Queensway. Your double
Cheers Queensway. Your double of whatever you like is on me. Here's too hoping that people learn to care and treat others accordingly. Not enough of that in this world.

Queensway, I'm making you Aniki's Zipperless F*ck. You will definitely need a designated driver after 2 of those!!
BTW, apparently some people find it impossible to treat others the way they'd like to be treated. They just go around being arseholes to everyone.

Tonight DH is going to buy me a beer (a pilsner I'm hoping since he drank mine!) and I'm going to tell him I'm happy for his decision to only have an over-night in town with me the end of the month to save money rather than a two-night stay! He budgeted!

I had to work late but dirty martini if you please!
My favorite joke:
Old Man and woman out at a restaurant and the waitress comes over and asks what they would like to drink.
Old man says "WHAT'D SHE SAY??" and the wife yells back to him "SHE WANTS TO KNOW WHAT YOU WANT TO DRINK!"
Waitress brings their drinks back to the table and asks the wife where they are from...wife says "Houston" and the waitress says, "oh, I remember Houston well....had the worst sex of my life there!!"
Old man says "WHAT'D SHE SAY????" and the wife yells back "SHE SAYS SHE THINKS SHE KNOWS YOU!".....ba da bum!

Vent...made the mistake of snooping and watched a video taken at HCBM's showing off her new remodel.
While our home is ripped apart because SO is working his ass off so that we can afford to fix it up. Have 50/50 and still pay 2k a month in child support!
I rarely allow myself to be bitter but that video has me twisted.
Note to self, never snoop!
I feel you on that one! BM
I feel you on that one!
BM built a house in resort town. I found it for sale online and uggg. It’s not my style but it is lovely and it’s listed for over 1.4 million!
Yes, she is deeply in debt and even at that price she might not make any money but I still wish I hadn’t looked at it.
We just bought a beautiful home, it’s huge and because it was a foreclosure we got an amazing price on it.
Part of me wants to plaster it all over FB, I know she creeps my page, just to show off that we too have a big expensive house. Then I don’t like myself and the ugly person I’ve allowed myself to become.
Anik, can I please have a Drambuie on ice?

No, I haven’t ever had a Tuaca but I’m intrigued and will have to find some to try.
