Hey Pilot, Just wanted to stop in for a sec. Wow you are dealing with a lot right now.
I know how it is with the kid's sports. Kinda gets in your blood, right? LOL. My S is only 9 and has played soccer and baseball since he was 4. The short off seasons he has we both miss it! I'll probably be so bored when he grows up since I'm used to running like crazy!
You sound so good to have so much on your plate.

Went to my swim meet yesterday. They really didn't need my help but I got lunch, my recert. class and basically socialized for the afternoon.
Spent the morning at the hospital with D23, my dad goes to an another neuroligist today and I am hopeful. Did some DB'ing with his W and told her she needs to take care of herself. She cried and told me how much she appreciated that statement.
I know I am not suppose to snoop. But so far 7 months of snooping has yielded nothing. So I log on to my FB account and my W has signed up, yesterday. Her status MARRIED. Odd, I think. Lists our anniversary date. What do I do if she asks me to be her friend? Not that there is anything on my account that I am worried about, except maybe the DB friends or the DB page.
Went to my IC/MC yesterday. W has given up on IC for the moment. I am not surprised and it almost seems like script. She didn't get the validation for her D from the C so she doesn't want to hear anything else that is being said.
The interesting thing that came out of IC is we were talking about why I got married 26 years ago and the IC said that because I never was able to "fix" my mother and her bipolar issues that I subconsciously (sp) married someone else who needed to be fixed, to see if I could get it right! WOW! I seemed to succeed with my D23 but have failed with my W. I have to get back to this mirror because it is going to take some intense thought on my part on what I have to fix about myself. I guess at this point I don't see it but I do think the C is not wrong. I questioned her about it and she just said that it was not a conscious thing.
There was some other issues about independence and love but I will get into that on another post.
I am trying an experiment. Might be a mistake but we shall see. Lets start out with my W major complaint with me all revolves around $$$$. Post bomb in my frantic days I agreed to go to a financial counselor. He said we could not retire because we had planned 2 cruises a year and we were $1500.00 a year short of our goal.
Ok, background is set. About a month ago I opened up a Roth IRA for $500 and figured I could start adding some money to it to try to meet this $1500./year goal. Yesterday the statement came in the mail. Now if my W is D me the way she says, she could use all the info from the financial C to take to her L etc...So I decided I will leave this statement out on the counter to see if I get a response from her.
Oh, one other thing she is hiding money in hidden bank accounts and in cash around our house. Sick MLC'er.
