Gardener, thanks. I am sifting through some conflicting emotions today. Probably triggered by W acting like the W of old slightly. Thanks for your thoughts and prayers.
SB, no negative effects from the wreck. I have to take the car to a body shop to have them give me the number. I think it's gonna be significant. Thanks for asking.
The conflict I have is logic (she isn't coming back and any nice behavior from her is b/c she wants to feel better or just get along until D is finished) v. emotion (she is acting nicely, so maybe this might be a sign). So far, logic is winning.
I will be polite, but continue to show strength in my discussions and actions. I will get things moving for the D - first step would seem to sit down with her and talk about what D will look like - financial aspect, custody, etc. Not doing this to get a reaction from her. It is the only option I see at this point.
