I just got an idea. How about I don't take any communications from her lawyer, or anyone else regarding this situation until she drops the Protective Order. NOTHING will get done. I see two possible outcomes:

1) She realizes it's completely unnecessary to have the PO and drops it in an effort to actually open communication. I am not a threat to her or anyone else. Well, maybe a threat to her misconception that I'm bad for her or something.

-or-

2) She thinks I'm trying to control the situation, gets pissed and we fall deeper into WAW hell. I know that's not optimal but something needs to move in this situation. We'll see what she comes up with this week.

Since it's 50/50 I need to think about it. My faith is strong, but faith without works is dead. I don't need to control, but I do want to see some change in the situation and in HER as well. I can't be doing all the work or getting back in the house would be as bad as before. I'm shooting for "better than we ever could have imagined!"

We can talk ourselves into defeat or we can talk ourselves into victory - we are creatures of our thinking.
