Hi Andrew,
Well, I'm a member to the "Parting of clouds in the midst of a storm" club! CAW had already let it be known that she had seen a lawyer about D and I had just found out the week before she was in contact with Social Services about child support as well. She was being openly hostile to me, so I felt it was a matter of days before I was going to be served with papers. I decided I'd better get a lawyer. After coming home from a consult (which she didn't know about) , she sat me down and said I want to try to work on us. When we hugged, I still had lawyer's business card in my shirt pocket and she felt it and asked what it was. I just told her it was a card from a vendor from work. :crazy ... and that was it, the clouds parted and the sun shined on ...

Keeping my fingers crossed for your deal, hope it goes through sooner rather than later.

'til later,
KAW
