Well, good, it sounds like you are laying low. Keeping it quiet. Good.

No, no progress on my side. No big changes. no interaction.
I haven't seen my kids for a week. That's one thing I don't like about the arrangement.

it'll change. in time.

This winter I will be skiing, I hope with the boys. The girls are not big skiers at the moment.

if I get off my duff and fix up my bicycle, I will be riding my bike, too. yes, in the rain and cold. It's not bad if you have the right clothing. I need some fenders, though. to keep the rainwater off my face! otherwise it is very difficult to see.
