My "gut" is telling me to be patient. Now why would my gut tell me that since I am one of the most impatient people in existence?
Like you,I am not know for my patience. Having said that, I have learned to be not only more patient, but to probe things in a more delicate anc compassionate fashion. ah, the things we learn in all of this.

Thanks, Grace, for the hugs! And are we already friends in FB? It is hard sometimes to know if we are with using different "names".
We aren't, but I am out there under my "name" here.

I think you said more valuable things in your post such as not to contact her and to GAL. I agree. I only contact her with regards to the kids. No way around that. GAL. What does that mean? Is it the same for everyone? Does it mean to date others, join a club, travel?
I have a life (as it were) outside of my kids. It isn't huge and tends to be spontaneous so that if they are available to do things....well that's where I want to be.
My D's are 17 and 14 and live with me 24/7. H comes to visit (at my home) once a week and sometimes takes them places. mostly they "hang out". that gives me the one day and it isn't always as convenient for me as I'd like, but I don't need to change it.
I tend to feel that the time I have left with them is too short. I've got plenty of time to do whatever strikes my fancy when they go.
