[From The Ashes]

I was thinking about sending STBE a Christmas card. No signature, just the message 'Living well is the best revenge. ASSHOLE!' Think he'll get the idea he's not my friend nor will he ever be?

I have a great sense of accomplishment. I got my Christmas cards mailed out...Yeah, me!

I hope someone will be around here on Christmas day. I'm gonna need distraction.

1. meh

Just drink a toast to him. He is not worth the price of the card.

4. Not worth the toast either...

:hi:

2. Use the correct punctuation if you do that.

For example, the following are NOT correct:

Living? Well is the best revenge asshole.

Living, well, is the best revenge asshole.

Very nice to see you!! :hi: :hi: :hug: :hug:

5. Nice to see you too...

...glad you've come back around. :hi::hug:

3. One of the rules of story writing is to show, not tell.

Live it. You won't need to tell him, or to call him names. Be too busy to even think of those who offend you :)

:hug: Be well!

6. I am going to have to contact him at some point...

...and he knows it too, the bastard. I haven't heard from him since I signed the divorce paper he 'forgot' to have me sign before I left. So if I want to know the status of the proceedings I have to :banghead: talk to him. :grr: Hoist upon my own petard, I think.

7. Have a friend act as a go-between. You don't need to subject yourself to more pain.

You don't have to do these things if they piss you off. Or, you do, in order to surpass them??

I hope that the feeling of having been burnt will wind down and leave you to enjoy life once more!

:hug:

8. I have no one to act as a go-between...

...except the kids (okay they're not really kids anymore) and I won't put them in the middle of this. Unlike the STBE, who has.

Pissed off? you bet I am. I'm 1400 miles from my sons and it's sucking the joy right out of me. And its all his fault.

9. You're between the painful place you've been and the good place you hope to arrive at.

You've done so much for yourself already, I hope that you take a moment every now and then and know that you're going in the right direction, in spite of anything or anyone else. Some people never get as far as you've gotten. I feel for you, it sucks and it shouldn't be like this, it's not right for someone else to dump this sort of crap on another...

Where you are is a stepping stone to what's good for you. You couldn't breathe until you got there. I don't remember if you were even giving yourself permission to express your righteous anger before then. It may suck, but I assure you that you are doing better than you were, and that this is a good sign. The feelings are yours, and no one can deny their validity. You are fixing what's wrong, and you will fix this situation into something that makes you happy. There will come a time when you are with your children and you won't even think of what has happened, as you've worked your way beyond it. I've been there and I see you on the same path. How wonderful to have things that once filled your vision, become as stick figures in the distant background. I wish this for you, and you're on the way.

Congratulations. I'll be here on Christmas Day if you need someone to be here.
