  • I know this isn’t 100% on topic but I recommend you want this TED Talk by Esther Perel about infidelity. It might give you some different perspective about cheating and how to deal with it. Take a watch and see what she has to say. She is highly regarded and a very helpful.

    I do think you should go after having a conversation with your ex-wife and child about it. Talk with your child about what they hope they are getting out of it and set some expectations about you wanting to spend most of your time with them. Tell them you might be angry about the situation which has nothing to do with them. Do the same with your ex-wife and say you want to go but you might be angry at points. Say it out loud so everyone is aware before it happens.

    You can’t fully disconnected from these people since you have a kid with them without hurting your child. Its going to be tough and rough but this might be a good crash course into your new relationship with your ex-wife and her new husbands. You don’t have to like them but be friendly enough in front of your kid.

    Also free fancy trip. Count it has blood money for the infidelity if that helps you

    The federal government is going to be gutted and destroyed. It’s time to focus on local change. Nationwide isn’t going to work for a while but focus on your city, your state, your block and your house. Live your values everywhere. Focus your attention on what matters and can be controlled

    I feel like this is a great reminder that you can only really change what you can control. Live your life with your values. Get a job that makes you feel worthwhile if you can. Spend time with friends in real life and online who live the same life as you.

    Volunteer at local events and make where you live as best as you can. Focus on local politics and issues since you can control them more. Go out and make the world you want

    If you have a few trees you can just mow over the leaves right on the lawn which breaks them up enough for your fall fertilizer if you don’t have a use for them. The last few years I’ve been using mine to compost in place my gardens. Haven’t had to bag since
