I sent her a Txt to thank her for preparing dinner for us ( yes shes back to AOS )
OK, you did one experiment on this one and it did not give the desired result. How about a new experiment, a 180 from your past.
For example, how did you previously acknowledge her cooking? If you always praised it, then that's nice, but maybe in a different way? If AOS is her LL, maybe do something nice for her? OR, if you know when she will come over and cook, get some flowers for the table the night before and put them out? If she stays for dinner you could offer to clean up while she eats with the kids?

she still wants to be involved with the family.
Yep, but you can't let her see that you know that nor that you are hoping for it to happen. Cool as a cucumber!
Dave you are getting the hang of this, just know that there is still a lot to learn, about yourself as well. Make the most of this time to live and grow. It may be the best gift your W ever gave you!

PS - If you can't tell, I am a bit jealous of you since I am stuck with W having her cake and eating it too!
