Thanks so much for the supportive comments. I think that I actually said the word police/restraining order was the magic words. I think he might finally be gettting it.
Today was a good day. Haven't really had one of those in a while - a day where I feel happy and carefree. Up again eating in the middle of the night but at least I didn't eat very much. I really would like to lose about 10 pounds.
I was reading an article on this blog today, Getting Past Your Past, and it had a really great article on abusive relationships and how you are responsible for how people treat you and to quit blaming the other person and I think a lot of it is relevant to me. I think I'm being nice, but I'm not, I'm just being a wimp. I need to stand up for myself and quit worrying about assholes that are taking advantage of me. Sounds real good when I say it, but I need to work on the whole implementation part.
The family counselor office person called yesterday and they had a cancellation so my appt for my oldest daughter got moved up to tomorrow well I guess it is today LOL. They go to their dads this weekend - if he gets them. Time will tell.
Well I better get back to bed so I don't feel like shit tomorrow.

I am so glad you are feeling better. You are so right in that we teach others how to treat us. They can only get away with what we let them get away with. I wish you the best of luck in learning to stand up for yourself - I know it is the hardest thing I ever had to do. I still struggle with it. Just remember, no body else is going to look out for your best interest. You have to do it yourself.
