My Halloween party was great fun as always but many notable people weren’t there and despite my plan to host it until 1am, everyone but buddy JS had left by 11:30pm. I was an 18th century ghost in a velvet maroon tux and KA was a pumpkin. Some friends of mine since the IL days came for the first time in 7 years which was great.

I visited my mom and she showed me a short video tour of XWs new jewelry store. She’s moved her business to its third location. A bigger and probably pricier location. No doubt being funded by her husband, the OM. Did see that her hair is pink right now and she’s covered in more tattoos-still in her crisis and seeking outward happiness to try and fulfill her sadness.

Two months after my final paycheck bounced NSF, I got paid via direct deposit. A week later I heard from a former coworker the business has a freeze upon it because of failure to pay back Lonas (in the millions) and the courts have taken over. My new job is alright. Much more physical at this package printer.

S33 contacted me and wanted my opinion on a matter that had arose so we met for dinner. I’m guessing he turned to me since XW is out of the country on vacation. I was shocked to learn S26s wife asked S33 (who had been drinking a lot) over after 11pm to fix some internet issue (S26 works nights and S33s gf goes to bed 9pm). It was a lie and she came on to him and they went to third base. I had to sleep on the betrayal and advised him to keep it unknown to all. Well, S33 has video cameras at S26s house (he’s an electrician) and erased footage of him going there that night. Crazily S30 was seen showing up that same night at like 3am (Supposedly S30 and the wife of S26 like to smoke weed together.) S26 questioned that and the missing footage and S33 came clean to his brother and his own fiancee. She left the house to go stay at her parents. Not really sure what S26 did with his wife after hearing the news. Not many of the family like her and this may just get her out. I’m sure XW knows now too. What happened to my sweet normal children?

S26 kicked out his wife of 5 months and they are getting divorced. S34 and his fiancee worked through it and skipped the family Thanksgiving gathering. XW Ive been told screamed and disowned our oldest son as if he murdered his brother, being involved with his W so he has been off socials for more than a month now. Hopeful the two brothers can be together in the same room for the holidays.

KA and I have been doing all sorts of fun date things and per usual we are together each weekend and Tuesday nights. She is very busy with D13s volleyball and she is building a house as well as has accepted a new position at work.

This past weekend was my Christmas Party for friends and I had a real good time as did KA and buddy JS and thirty others. There was an ornament grab bag and after the party I discovered someone left a Bigfoot. It belongs to TPB and I said I’d drop it off after work, as I pass her place daily on my commute. She invited me in and we talked for 3.5 hours about our exes and other things. She had mistletoe hanging in the center of the room which I’ve honestly never seen before. When I decided it was time to leave we had a hug and I jokingly pulled her two steps towards the mistletoe to try and kiss her. She just kept turning her head and said You have a girlfriend! I figure if there ever was a chance she wanted one this was it and she didn’t. She then gave me leftover pizza and spaghetti to take home. I left outside to discover my car battery was dead. Head hung low I had to ask her to come out in the freezing temps to give my battery a jump. After more than an hour of trying and feeling terrible overall, it could not be revived. I was tempted to call S34 to help me out but instead took TPBs car home (11 mins away) with the promise to be back with a brand new battery in the morning. She texted me to not worry about anything. This am I gave her key fab back and made it to work on time. I think I will stop texting her. I see her bestie JKR on Friday for a cookie drop off and I wonder if the story will have reached her ears?
