You are strong morgan. It's in your words when you write. If you want to take them to the festival for you and for the kids then do it but don't do it just to show him - as tempting as it is :). About the d, remember you can only control you and don't ask about it. You said before he wants you to make the decision so if you bring it up, it's almost as if you want it (in his mind). Plus remember DB'ing. I started to do my goals today and boy are they hard. I'm not sure if I did it right - going to have to look on this board and see if there is a place to get input on them. Did you read DR? I am into the fourth chapter and still not sure if it applies to my situation as mine seems more complex than two people fighting over not spending enough time together. Stay focused morgan, you are doing great. Signing off for the night, having a pajama movie party with DD.
