No, we see each other when dropping the kids back and forth. She usually asks me to do things through the kids. For example, this weekend we have an event called Doors Open Toronto and 150 different places like TV stations, Mosques, Galleries etc let people in for free. She asked my D17 to ask me if I'd like to go with them to visit the nearby Mosque tomorrow (D17 loves the desserts they serve there!). I have a dinner engagement with a friend so I declined. But dealing with my Dad's illness was pretty weird. She came with me and the kids every weekend to visit him (I went every day for three months) and we would talk all the way there and back. Certainly, in my mind a little voice was saying "why is it that you two can't get along again?" I really appreciated her attention to Dad though. My brothers current wife couldn't be bothered to even come to his funeral let alone visit! But now, we are back to normal. Again, it is what it is! I don't lose sleep over it or really think much about it at all. She is what she is and honestly she hasn't changed much since we separated. I wouldn't want to go back and live with that again...not that I'm being asked to. Btw, in a two weeks a group of us are honouring my Dad by going to a ball game and getting tickets in the section he and his best friend used to sit in. Just waiting to hear whether we scored the tickets. Dad loved his Jays!
In following Daybreak's fine example, I too will post a link that has absolutely nothing to do with divorce but it does have something to do with new starts. I post this because I donate monthly to the organization that made this possible for the young women involved in the article. When I read of these victories I can't think of a better place to spend my money. Please read it and pray for the IJM and the young girls it continues to rescue...and then I'll start a brand new thread to celebrate new starts!
