Court on Thursday.

Case conference is Thursday. I met with my lawyer yesterday, what a pain. We've proposed an interim schedule change that will make sure my daughter is with me on Thursdays to go to her counselling. I will have her every Wednesday and Thursday and he will have her every Monday and Tuesday and we will alternate weekends. My lawyer didn't like the idea she said there was too much back and forth, but essentially it makes every stretch either 2 or 5 days long. IMO that is much better than not having any contact with my daughter for 7 days when she is with her dad. I told the lawyer since we can't communicate then I don't even get to talk to her on the phone and have to go over to her daycare on my lunch break just to see her.

I just want this part over. I have court on Thursday and it is stressing me out. I just need something in writing that will take away the chance for him to control me. Everything else has basically been worked out. There wil have to be some negotiations to settle the finances, but I'm sure it won't be too bad.

As for my last post, the happiness is still continuing!! I went for a walk with a good friend on Saturday afternoon (and my dog!) and we had a good chat. I am hoping to go see Avatar tinght with another friend, and hopefully that will keep my mind preoccupied enough for me to relax.

I have started counting calories and doing tae-bo and after 5 days I saw the scale numbers go down 6 lbs! Not that I expect that trend to continue, but it was very encouraging. No, I am not starving myself. Since I have stopped taking depression meds that has probably helped, and I am focussing on eating a proper amount of healthier food and getting active again. I am so happy that I finally feel motivated to enjoy life again. Seriously, I have missed it!!
