My ex got a plea deal. 18 months, suspended after 6 months. So she'll be out in Mid-May of next year. Not happy about that,but I'm trying not to think about it. Just trying to breathe and relax knowing that, at least for the time being, I don't have to worry about her showing up at my door. The weekend after Thanksgiving I am going to be moving out of my dad's house. I'm going down to Missoula, where my friend Kate and her husband live. They said I could stay with them until I find a place of my own. I just want to get settled somewhere, where my ex will not know where to find me when she does get out. I'm afraid that nothing is going to stop her from trying. Even with restraining orders she kept showing up. I only hope that 6 months in prison will be hard enough on her that the threat of another year will be enough to deter her. The good news: I am starting college in January! The first semester will be online for prerequisites and some of my General Education requirements, then I will start my degree program on-campus next fall. Also, since my Celiac diagnosis and getting off gluten, I feel so much better. I have a lot more energy and I'm actually sleeping, all night. I have nightmares still, but they are getting easier to deal with. Not all of of the time,but most of the time, I am able to tell myself immediately that it was just a dream and go back sleep right away. So, despite the [censored] sentence the ex received, things are looking up. :)
