It's been about what? 7 years since we had that huge fight and I almost divorced him then... I should have done it. It's been miserable since. I've pretended to be happy and yes, I am as long as he's not around. He works opposite shifts from me so I only see him a few half days.

Well, the kids are older and will be able to understand the situation better. In fact, my eldest, Joey, knows already. I have found evidence that he's cheating with his boss this time. They send eachother lovey dovey texts back and forth. It's sickening. She's married and probably 10 years older. If he had to choose, he'd probably still choose me. However, I'm not going to give him that choice. I'm done. I was actually happy to find this out since it will give me a "reason" to leave him instead of just, "irreconcileable differences," which everyone takes as a copout for not being willing to work things out.

Anyway, I have a consultation with the lawyer on Monday and will find out how things will go from there. He doesn't know that I know what's up yet. I'm going to blindside him with it so he doesn't think he can try talking me out of it while lying and making excuses. He's manipulative like that.

yep, so that's my life right now. Actually, the rest of my life is great! I'm working at a school, teaching ESL, and taking classes to get a masters in teaching in a couple years. I love my job. I love my family besides the husband. Life is good and I'm ready to just make it even better.
