My kids are part of the reason I will file on Friday - they need my undivided attention, not me being distracted by W's ups and downs.
I am trying to give W opportunities - I have been communicating with her somewhat. I am taking the kids downtown today and walking around - it is GORGEOUS weather, and I'm going to invite her because she will be done with finals week.
She can join us - however, she knows what needs to happen by Friday for me to halt the filing, and I won't blink an eye.
