starting to freak out a bit

X has a lawyer. (finally)

Well, why shouldn’t he? We’re getting a d-i-v-o-r-c-e.
Did you expect him to just show up by himself on Thursday?

Still, there’s this tremor that’s starting in my core.
This ‘feeling’ that we are playing with nuclear bombs, not just fire.

Can we negotiate our way through this without turning into a “War of the Roses?”
Can I keep centered on a solution that’s best for the kids and not act/react out of fear and anger?
please please please

we’re entering the tunnel now
i’ve seen it coming a long way off
no one has turned a switch to take a different track
there are no ways around it now
it’s a long long tunnel and there are no lights
no real idea of what is on the other side
only a small hope
that there is
light
and life
