In my rush to breakdown the negotiations and the results thereof I failed to mention that my W and I were remarkably friendly to eachother in a natural unforced way.

The mediator commented on how well we get along and the fact that this mediation was the fastest and easiest one he has been involved with. On the other side of the table I saw a person I truly care about and miss and I hope she may have felt the same. We laughed and smiled with and at eachother on several occasions during the session.

We agreed to get together soon to discuss some loose ends to our agreement over coffee. She also seemed open to discussions about possibly keeping the house under joint ownership as she understands how much the children enjoy being their and how ideal it is for them. That will be a tough one to work out but at least she is currently open to things in general.
