I am doing well, all things considered. My relationship with all my children is really strong and positive, one of love and mutual respect and trust. I am developing a strong and positive relationship with my daughter-in-law. I am very happy and thankful for all of that.
As regards ex-wife #2, well we barely speak, and we have no relationship. I am doing better with regards to my divorce, but the deep bitterness remains. My counselor said to me a couple of years ago that perhaps I am holding onto the bitterness because that is all I have left. Perhaps that is the case, but I will never allow her to "F" me ever again. If my bitterness is my defense mechanism to keep that from happening I am content with it. I am alone and I am content with that at this point. I keep everyone at arms length, with the exception of my children. Maybe I am creating lonely future for myself, but I will deal with the future, in the future.
As far as the rest of things, I am working hard, using a number of the things I learned in my MBA everyday in my work life. I get great satisfaction from that.
In my off times I have been working on a project that I has interested me for a long time. It is about evaluating NBA draft prospects. I have learned a lot, and expect to learn a lot more. I hope at some point to write a blog. I could probably start now, but I want refine my tools and ideas more. Every time I think I am making a breakthrough I look at it a different way, and my models and concepts start to change. Each time that I happens I think things improve, but I need to keep on working on it. It is something I am working on with my oldest son, and he is just as interested in it, which makes it all the more enjoyable.
Reality, I hope things are going well for you!
