Nothing real new to report. Compared to three years ago, yes things are better. I suspect enough people have said enough to W, mix that with my unwillingness to accept D and W has decided to watch and see what improvements and changes can be made in our R. W seems to be more forthright about what she is doing, more sharing in decisions and future.
One thing I have learned from this experience is to get more involved with what is happening in my life and enjoy what does happen. Especially, when it comes to the kids, I have to enjoy them while I have them. Hopefully we'll have this R straightened out, so that when the kids do finally move out, there will still be a reason to stay together. By then W should have gotten over this and I should hopefully be able to forgive her for all that has happen.
