Wow does time fly. Looks like 11/5 was my last post here. Months are just rolling by. Truth is I don't have tons to report on this end. Living my life, chugging along.
OK, so maybe some activity.
We were/are very close to completing dissolution. All terms have been agreed upon but no action taken. I really thought I was going to do it if we didn't make steps toward reconciliation by Christmas.
Oldest daughter was hospitalized for self injury. She's doing better now.
W is no longer seeing OM. I believe she broke up with him one too many times and he ended it for good.
W basically hit the wall and is very depressed. She's agreed to go sew a marriage counselor to see if there's anything left to salvage.
Several months ago it was my stretch goal just to get to this point. Now, I'm really not sure. While I did leave her, and I did contribute to 20 years of bad marriage, I see so clearly that I was not alone. Much of it was her, and while I'm not proud of what I did. I see how it could happen to anyone. At this point its probably impossible for her to admit too much. After all being left behind is hard. So we'll see how the counseling goes. Nothing seems to be happening very fast these days.
