For me at 10 months I was a mess and that is when we had the big blow up at New Year's. After that is when I got a lot stronger.

A thought from a while ago. Have you asked W about having the girls Mondays or Tuesdays instead of Thursdays as the extra day. Since W doesn't want to go 5 days on your weekends without seeing them, maybe that is a compromise you could make. I don't remember if you tried that already, but I was thinking about that as I was reading some of your posts.

I am glad D7 is making some friends. It will help her a lot.
