Refuse To Lose, Part VIII

[AliSuddenly]

Hi RTL!
WOW, yes, some baby steps! Its interesting on a few counts.. that you have noticed that she reaches out to you a little more when The Snake isnt about. Also, that she DID call you at 10pm when they were doing the nit comb thing and she found out she had them too, but she could have called OM ? But she called you. Next, I was interested to see that she cried so much she got a migraine. Ok, lice is horrible, but it still seemed like an over reaction on her part, kind of hysterical? Was she always like that or do you thikn she is in a stressed/bad place right now?

This was interesting too that you said...
I got a playful text from W at 2:45 telling me D was currently in a bounce house at a party and had been in for 90 minutes. We joked back and forth, then she got serious and asked me if I was ok about my father's surgeries.
Looks like she couldnt just come out and say she was sorry for you about your Dad and were you ok about it, she just started texting casually first. But clearly, she WAS thinking of you and whether you were ok or not, so thats a baby step too in terms of being less angry. Maybe you are starting to peep at Stage 2 just on the horizon??? Keep sailing towards it! You are doing such a fantastic job, being patient and steadfast and I am sure you are learning an awful lot about how to relinquish control in your R..
