Journaling: I did have a great, if surreal, weekend. W is being nice, even what could be (mis-)interpreted as flirty. She has been wanting to do things with me and the kids more lately, although always inviting her new best friend and her family along.
Soooo, on the 4th we all went to the beach and had a grill party afterwards, complete with fireworks. Sat. she invited BF's family back over for dinner and then today she was going to join us at the local aquatic center until we decided to play soccer instead.
I think she knows I am VERY close to filing and is trying to make us feel more like a family again. Unfortunately, it's all just a little too late, or really too little, too late.
Otherwise, got my travel plans for work (Europe) and vacation (TX and CO) planned. I will have the boys for 10 days again, no W, no worries! So I am really looking forward to that. W will have the kids in TX while I am on my bus. trip.
If all goes well, she will have a letter from the L for her when we return.
I did finally set a boundary when she had planned to take the kids to TX 3 days before I left for Europe. I ended up paying a few $ for change fees, but she agreed to stay until the day before I leave, which is the day of my next triathlon anyway.
Otherwise, I got in a awesome workout weekend, hard run on Fri., long ride on Sat. and yoga/swim/soccer today. I really am physically spent, but it's kind of fun to eat 4000 calories a day and not gain any weight. As an extra-bonus, that drives W crazy!
Take care, SD
