53. Brotherly Love

You probably ask yourself how I can see some of the emails that I see.  That's because Mark will email other people and then somewhere along the line add me to the conversation.  When he does it allows me to see everything else that was said in the conversation.

The following email was from Mark's brother Bruce.  As you can tell, he isn't very happy:

52. Post Vday Notes & FPL Bills

So, I waited until today to respond to his Valentines emails.  I thought long and hard about writing him.  I don't know why I just don't ignore him.

After thinking, writing and re-writing, below is what I finally came up with.

51. Happy Valentines Day, I Guess

Nothing else to see here...move along...

50. CucKoOo CoooOOOooo

I should have kept my mouth shut yesterday.  I criticized his listing of the house.  Yes, it was completely false.  But, I know better then to say anything.

I also did not respond to his request for a date night until the morning, so that also gave him ammunition to go a bit crazy.  Unfortunately, that's exactly what happened.

49. Procrastination...

Procrastination is a crime

It only leads to sorry

I can stop it anytime

I think I will tomorrow...

No.  I didn't fall off the face of the earth.  No.  Mark did not shoot me.  I just haven't felt like writing.  I go through stages.  I think about writing, then I think better of it.  I realize I have to relive everything and sometimes I just don't want to.  So, I just don't write.

Things have been a bit more quiet.  Sure, I had the usual phone calls, but mostly Mark has left me alone.   Today he wanted to update me on our house, which he has put on Zillow and has totally misrepresented our house:

48. The Day After

As I stated in my final thoughts last night, I wanted to wait to respond to Mark's request to go to a marriage counselor.  I wasn't sure I wanted to respond at all.  I decided I would.

47. You've Been Served...

I didn't sleep well last night as usual.  I actually had several nightmares throughout the night.  I couldn't stop thinking about what would happen once Mark was served his divorce papers.  Trust me, he has no clue that this is coming.

Oh sure, he was sitting there when his psychiatrist 'told me to file'.  And, I have no doubts his brother called him after Kristin talked to him and told him I was planning to file.  But, after receiving Facebook messages like this on Tuesday, it makes me believe he doesn't think it will happen:
