Mike, Your wife is still with you in MC, she is being positive with you at home, and she is not being nuts like many women do during these situations.
In tennessee you must work together on a parenting plan. Both parents must attend parenting class (1 day 8 hours). Once agreement has been reached and signed by the judge, it is affective 30 days from that date.
In other words relax,you have a child together. You have at least 6 months and if you continue to focus on your own well being and do not let the D overwhelm you,you have a good chance of saving your R. It's not like she can't change her mind the day before it goes into affect..... quit stressing out and stay on task.
Where did you golf w/your son? I am driving the 90 minutes and playing Bear Trace tomorrow morning...... nothing like tennessee golf in the spring my friend.

Your right Ian. I just think, stress and worry too much about my sitch.
My wife and I talked a little last night. I have a car that needs to be repaired and the financial stress and worry is getting to me. We talked a little about that, touched on the R a bit, talked about mediation. Even talked about sex. Had a real good conversation. Talked about how we have not argued since December and how well we are working together. She tells me she is very conflicted and does not know what to do.
I feel if I could make peace with her mother, that would be a big step forward for me. I don't know how to go about doing that because her mother will not come to our house right now. Says I make her uncomfortable. Anybody have any suggestions on that.
I played golf with my S at Warriors Path State Park. I'm in upper northeast Tennessee. Tri-Cities area. There are some good courses up here. I'm playing only once a week now, trying to show my W that I put her and D first since that was one of her complaints.
I'm trying to chill out and not stress so much. Fridays and Mondays are hard on me. I have to retain an attorney this week so I'm hoping that's not a setback for me. I'm afraid when I get an attorney involved it will set me back and I'll be back to square one.
Ian, I appreciate you stopping in and giving me advice. Your advice calms me and makes me think I have a chance.
