Sorry to hear OM is back. Doesn't terribly surprise me, but I'm sorry about it just the same.
I think you are doing well. Your W seems like a yo-yo. One minute talking to you and having fun, then family is here, can't talk. One minute she wants to sit with you on the couch, next she's tense. who knows what she'll do next.
Glad to hear that you are going to majorly focus on you for a while. It'll be really good for you!
Sounds like she has just gotten so used to lying, that it is probably automatic. When i was younger (like 10-12) i stole a wallet from a store on a dare. I lied about where i got it. Each lie turned into another and then, eventually, i just kept lying. I'd lie about stuff that didn't even matter, just cause. Once my parents found out and i had to go back to the store and work off the money and a variety of other punishments, i stopped. It's like a cycle though. One lie leads to another. Until she gets to the point where it is just not worth/too hard to keep lying anymore, she'll just keep going.
