Where to even begin.

Well, Erik and I have decided to get divorced. Things have been bad for a long time and we finally gave up. Rather than let Ember see us fighting constantly and letting her think that was okay. We decided she would be happier with us separate and seeing us happy, then having an example that she would think would be the norm and the possibility of her being in a relationship like that.

The separation got nasty for a while, but is starting to calm down now. Thank God.
Erik will have her two weekends a month, at his request. He just needs to have a stable living environment before that can start.
We have both moved on. We both have significant others. I cant speak for him, but I am definitely happier.
It's very relieving to not have to constantly be watching over someone else's decisions for fear that they wont be logical and will screw us over somehow.

I was laid off from my job on November 15th, 2013 and just finally found another one two weeks ago.
I am now an assistant to a real estate broker who mainly deals with probate properties and estates.
I like the job, because it challenges me. A lot left to learn. Just got to soak it all up like a sponge.

Other than that, Ember is growing like crazy. She is only two and is wearing a 3T and size 7 toddler shoes. I am starting to potty train her. I finally got her off the bottle by just throwing it away one day and not giving her another one. That was about two weeks ago and she only asks for it every once in awhile.

My dad is still my manny. He takes care of her while I work and occasionally when I play softball or shinai.

I need people to start having babies. I miss having them around, and I am definitely not getting to have another one any time soon. Chop chop people!

That's all for now. I should really be sleeping, but I wanted to check this off my mental to do list.
