Thanks Addie, Marcum

Another huge day. My STBXW moved all day on D negotiations, agreed to start paying her personal bills and we are very close to a D agreement. She is still on the phone w/ OM for 2-3 Hrs per day and this seems to be helping me on the D. We are down to one issue - Money. She thinks that I have to keep her lifestlye the same and support her (and OM) in basically the same way that I support her now. I told her that the kids are my responsibility - not her. She is having a huge reality check on the post D financial situation.

I think that we are going to get "stuck" very soon on negotiating the D and end up in formal mediation if not litigation.

She actually sounded like a human being yesterday in several conversations. First time in months.
