Somehow this site used to give me solace and comfort in each day that I struggled through alone. Somehow, it’s gotten me more pessimistic each time I read it that things will work out, but who knows. My kids have been through so much during the last year, I hate to see them go through more of this. Not being able to be with my kids every day as they grow is beyond ripping my heart out. Unless there is abuse or some other factor hurting kids, divorcing another human being is one of the most horrible thing one person can do for a family, especially when kids are involved. I called yesterday. Kids miss me and me them. W. was driving them back from FIL’s beach house, and was robotic on the phone. She used to be that way even when things were OK, so who knows. She is perhaps the most inflexible person I have ever met in my life. There is no other way than hers. She can hold a grudge for years. She alienated several neighbors and friends by doing this, but didn’t care. Thanks for writing. I’ll check back in some time.
