Newcomer, want to keep my hope alive!

Boy, my W certainly knows how to try and push my buttons.

Took my d8 to school this AM, where they had an assembly, my W works there, and although I expected it, it's interesting to me now when she completely ignores me, and makes sure to be on the other side of the room, not say anything to me, nor bother to even look at me. Oh well, I talked to a couple of teachers and parents, and sang along with the assembly for new 1st graders, and watched my d8 was off to first day of 3rd grade.

Then, My d8 had a friend over for a play date, who stayed for dinner. I am working from home for a bit, head downstairs, and she has served and is eating dinner, and didn't bother to let me know.

I almost expected that at this point in our R, but didn't let it bother me, just asked if I could join them.

She is getting callous about my feelings now, but she won't look me in the eye anymore, and won't talk to me or initiate any kind of communication either.

I tried to open her up a bit at dinner, by asking some questions about her work, and she replies, but does not elaborate at all, and I can tell she doesn't want to be talking to me.

I am not going to let that bother me, just noting it.

I have to call the mediator again tomorrow and setup a date to meet.

What a mess...
