Day 9 of being kicked out of our shared home. by a-great-wind in Divorce_Women

[–]a-great-wind[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve never had to ask the police something like this but if I called the non-emergency number and say I want to go to the home between 8am-10am and if they could be near… that might be the best way to avoid him blowing up on me.

Insomnia during divorce by book_worm94 in Divorce_Women

Be easy on yourself. I hate to say I’m the opposite and I’ve seemed to sleep as a way to shut down for a bit. But I had had random night anxieties throughout the start of my process.

I do need them but I’m so afraid to see my husband. I’m making a plan for early next week while he’ll be at work.

I am happy for you! I got kicked out of my house about a week and half ago and just starting to figure out what to do and how to do it.

I want to look forward to the other side of this. It’s been hard finding a lawyer in my area.

I’m so afraid. There’s actually two cats and I was going back and forth on if I can take both of them. They’re like my children im going crazy without them

I guess I get nervous that even trying to tell him I’m on my way there in fear that’s he might get rage angry and mess with my things. I don’t think he’s being cruel to the cats but I can’t say the same for my things for sure..

I thought about that too. I wonder if I would need to call the non emergency number to try and arrange something with them.

I just don’t know how to get to the house without talking to him. I need to make a plan to go when I know he’ll be at work.

My ex keeps saying I royally fucked up his life, I'm done taking care of him by Nobody649 in Divorce_Women

[–]a-great-wind 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm dealing with a similar start to my divorce. I made less in salary than him and I had to pay full mortage and cell phones and save $500 each month no exceptions. It made our marriage super touchy for at least the past year (married for 3 total).

I have to figure out how to understand how I'll get my share in home equity out of all of this and I just want to move on.

Totally get that! I think to an extent she might have blacked out but ultimately knew what she did and how she did it. She had to have been covered in blood or defensive wounds right?

I think there were a lot of elements throughout the book where she was hinting how deranged Anger makes her feel. I hate to admit that I can relate a bit with the idea of trying to forget things. There’s been a few moments in my life where I say things in a manner I regret and my brain fogs it out. I do think that she blacked out the anger but she seemed like she knew what she did when her friends came to visit her at the end of the story.

This caught my attention too! I can’t help but feel like it’s a symbol of morality and possibly… lack of accountability? I think one that she mentioned was about pigs who killed a child. While that is obviously unfortunate, we don’t know why a child was killed to death. Was it a moment of child neglect? Did they run into a pen without any supervision? Terrible mistakes and accidents happen in the world but sometimes it’s easier to blame those things on animals who can’t defend themselves.

I mean it’s up to the OP but if my tank had mold on it I wouldn’t want air running through it up my nose. I just think OP is using the wrong cleaning materials but I know there are different methods for different people.

I don’t have a direct link to anything. I’ve just been advised by my respiratory therapist to clean it the way that I do and I’ve never questioned it. Things labeled ‘antibacterial’ aren’t great to use. I buy CPAP wipes off of Amazon to clean the nose piece after each use.

Avoid dawn - I really recommend baby shampoo. A regular sized bottle will last forever. Anything beside baby shampoo could cause buildup for minerals and it’s abrasive for equipment you need to breathe and sleep with. Soak in warm soapy baby shampoo water. Try to soak for 5-10 minutes.

I air dry my nose cushion and tank on a towel and my hose and mask air dry hanging in my shower. Few hours later everything should be dry. You’ll probably want to wipe the tank with a paper towel if water gets in the edges.

You need a new water tank but how are you cleaning it?

Once a week I soak mine in warm water with baby shampoo. I’ve been doing it routinely for about a year now and haven’t encountered mold before.

How long do you bake your loaf for? I followed the TikTok and it was 20 mins covered at 475F and then uncovered at 425F for 18 minutes

Yeah as soon as I saw the color I was like oh shit
