Doogie's 2024 Transformation Log

Haha, see? That’s why it’s challenging for so many people, and why they crumble under stress. But if you stay focused on “head down, chin up” you somehow make it through.

It’s not always visible to other people, but one knows when one is doing it.

Good luck.

So, basically the judge just punted until July 3. At that point, she will hear arguments on whether or not I even have standing to TRY to get the kids. I’m fairly confident I get past that hurdle. Then she decides if the temporary orders that are in place allowing me to keep the kids stay in place. If not, the boys would go to their dad, have to start a new school, and all of that until we have a hearing in September. We would have mediation in September before the hearing. I feel like it would be awful for the boys to have to switch schools and spend that long with their fucked up sperm donor, but I also feel like he would be tired of them by September and probably find some way to save face and give them back. But he’s a complete POS, so who knows.

B. Went to do pushups and realized there was a huge possum laying in my pushup spot. No idea how I hadn’t seen it before, but it was early and I was tired. I just left the garage and left the door cracked hoping it would leave during the day. No such luck. Came home and had to shovel it into the trashcan. I’ll do chest and tris tomorrow.

That’s certainly something I never expected to read in a workout log…

I’m still not 100% sure, honestly. But it is out of my garage. I left the trashcan lid open so it can escape if it is still alive.

Update: That possum is dead. Went outside to check on it and a million flies were swarming the trashcan. Rip Possum Bob.

So being alive is no longer a viable opossumibilty.
RIP, thou posthumous oppossum.

So I went in the garage this morning, and it stunk. I looked around and found what I assume is possum poop and a bunch of dead either fetal or baby possums. I spent 30 minutes cleaning it all out.
