I can "guarantee" that this is her plan. Diffuse it before she gets a chance. This may also be a perfect time for D16 to give her some MUCH NEEDED truth darts.

I understand. No excuses. Just a screw up by me - wanting to protect the k's.
\:\(


Expecting drama tonight of a diff sort. The EGF that W went to see last night (the same one that came over doen in phx) called the W of one of my good friends (GFw) to go for dinner. So friend is thinking it is so EGF can tell GFw some of this from W's perspective. That way, GFw will tell my friend who will tell me.

Oh well, truth and openness and honesty. GFw knows all so will be interesting.

Hi LIS, it's been a while since we've talked. I see you are still hanging in here and that says a lot about you. I gathered from what few posts I have read that D16 still doesn't know about mom. Well, you know how I feel about having to tell anyone if things can be worked out between the couple, but I do have limits and if she is trying to get her "version" of the so called truth first.....that's not good. She probably knows if she doesn't get to the D first with her side of the story, then she fears she'll lose her, therefore she has to convince D that you are the monster here. Just my take on what I read. I may be off base, and this may be about something else. Anyway, I am sorry that things are like this, but if she opens this can of worms, then don't sit back and not defend yourself. I fully understand how you feel in wanting to protect your loved ones, but in this case, you've got to tell them what is really happening. After all this time, they probably have a good idea, but haven't wanted to face the truth.

Take care,
Sandi


It is not about what you feel should work in your M. It is about doing the work that gets the right results. Do what works!

Lost,

This is some good intel. GFw will be able to tell you what your wife's narrative is, and that's huge.

USE IT.

In fact, I would use it in BOTH directions: I would ask GFw to convey to your wife how much Lost loves her, and seems to be distraught and is fighting for her and is concerned.

Use the backchannel.

Just a brief update. Well it turned out that nothing really came of the meeting last night. Will find out more today but disc was brief.

So here we are at Saturday. Same old same old.

Plan to take D16 out for supper before she leaves on her trip. Just the 2 of us.

(((Sandi))) thanks for stopping by. As usual, your insight is bang on. The limits are something that need to be protected. I have told W "no more lies and deceit" and that has started. Come back anytime - will try to have the coffee on! \:\)

PDT, as you can see, don't think I will get much. May have actually been a temperature check the other way.

(((wdid)))

I finally was able to view the video clip. Thank you. I know I would need a box of tissues if I actually saw the entire movie.

Strange, but I could see myself giving that apology... not today... but someday.

Thanks again. \:\)

OK a little bit more... maybe a REALITY SUCKS moment...

Apparently the only disc GFw had around us last night was that my W had been looking at the finances and was "shocked" and could not believe the much lower net worth we have. DUH!!!!!

but also

About freakin time!!!!!!
