I'd probably cast my bet with crazy. The good, there's room for us to work together for the kids. God, I don't know what to say, really. Karen's pointed out that W doesn't seem to be able to stop herself, and it's really up to me. My family and friends have pointed out the potential for unhealthy stagnation. And yeah, a week and a half ago we had sex. Crazy? Yeah. Me enabling crazy? Yeah.

Yeah, I've been following your thread. You'll get through it. Sounds like the lawyer situation is favorable.

The settlement stuff - well, take a deep breath man. What you have now is the start - you'll make a counter, the process will work out. Let your L do the work, and keep breathing.

For me, not sure relieved is the word. I'm glad that part of the process is over. Yeah, I'm going to be paying a lot of money every month, and I'm handing over all the investments and some of my 401k. But, it could have been worse, my W values me as a father and wants to enable that.

OK that's all for now.
