Hey Karen43 and Puppy, thank you for checking in on me, I'm being polite, civil and courteous to W. I'm keeping conversations with her short and to the point. She is a talker and always has been, I get straight to the point, then walk away, no additional small talk.
Tonight when I get home, I won't say anything to her, I'll answer her questions and get dressed and go about my busniss. Like today when she called to see if I needed anything, even if I did, I wouldn't ask her to get it, I'll take the kids to the store after I get off work if I need something.
We all have a long haul ahead of us good or bad it's the path we choose thats important.
