Thanks Kalni and N...still here.

My next court date is 4/23. As most know, the holdup is the financial appraisal of my practice. Every time I think they are done, they ask for more papers....more account information..more bank statements. They cannot move forward with custody until the appraisal is done. I think...I HOPE..that this week it will be. Otherwise, it's another 1 - 1 1/2 months til the next date.

I look at the positives. Each delay is another few weeks that I get to see my kids on a daily basis. Of course, the irony is, I am locked in here with her. Lazarus, on Star Trek.

I gave my W a piece of paper listing 2 counselors I called and liked and asking her to call them and see if she approves. Writing, still, is better than trying to converse with her. I hand wrote it this time to make it seem less 'legal induced'.

As you can tell from the quote above, XXX has actually called me twice in the last 2 weeks with....hmmmmm.....I guess the best way to describe it is.....'dialog'. Either going with the kids to here...or...can you watch them at a certain time.

OK...are ya ready: BABYSTEPS!!!!!LOLOLOLOLOL. But...NOT towards RECONCILIATION......towards.......LESS ANGER.

Yes...THAT'S IT....BABYSTEPS TOWARDS LESS ANGER. ROFLMAO

This Saturday is my 10 year wedding anniversary.
Next month is three years post-bomb.
Two weeks my D5 becomes D6.

Milestones of sorts.

PS....I could do a whole post on the 10 year thing....our past hopes, dreams, plans that we had for it...but...I won't. It serves no purpose.

Strength and honor.
