Gonna post this novella and then next post get down to business with what's planned so far...in case anyone is reading....otherwise...I'll just be here talking to myself!
LOL that's how I feel with my PTR's too.
Listen when my son was 6ish, my ex pretty much did what yours did. That year of recovery was absolutely awful. We as a country had also slid into a recession, but I work in mental health so when that stuff happens, job security for me. Anyway, so this was May that it happened and the following May I took my son on a trip to Disney where we stayed in AKL savannah view room, had the quick service dining plan, and we got to escape reality for a bit too. I had saved $700 to spend on our vacation and ended up only spending about $400. Taking him on that vacation meant the world to me. The hardest part, however, was not being able to share his moments with anyone but myself. That was the part I did not count on and that was the part that hurt the most. If you've never done Disney just you two girls, you might struggle with that. However, I understand wanting to escape reality by going to WDW, because that was part of why I wanted to go, but most important, I proved to myself and my son that I COULD do this and even as a single mom I'd make magic happen. 10 years later, I remarried, my ex was sued to have his parental rights severed, and our courts granted my husband paternity. So, in the end, our story worked out. I know it can't work out like that for everyone, but keep your chin up, you'll muddle through this mess one day at a time.
How does your DS have a GF in Montreal? My husband is from there and we visit Montreal often. Are y'all Canadian?
ETA: I'm retarded. Just saw your post about flying out of Toronto, so I guess, yes, y'all are Canadian.
2/3 of us are Canadian too, but we live here in Florida. I'm the only one without the Canadian passport

And you're staying at the Contemporary!!! Such a great place, and so close to everything
