Journaling,

Yesterday was the first full day of detaching and it produced some small results.

I worked yesterday and stayed silent throughout. She texted me in the late afternoon asking me how my day was. I didn't respond as I had things I was doing and she texted again telling me she was picking up my oldest son. I was away from my phone and couldn't respond. She sent one more later sying "No Response...no worries".

I eventually responded and let her know I was just getting back home. She updated me on little things and I ended the text messaging wishing her a good evening.

We just separated over the weekend so I am thinking she is feeling some guilt? Seeing if I am OK? Not sure. Maybe a small step. No phone calls just texts.

I pick up the kids tonight as they are with me for the next two days. I think I will be very brief and depart as quickly as I can without being rude.

What a long road this is going to be. But some small signs as she was barely communicating before.

Jeff
