Juno, as always thanks for the encouragement, the kind words and your advice. I too like reading your comments and input very much smile

As far as meeting people, those are some great suggestions. I have friends, lots of them actually that I can call and talk to but no one that I can hang out with or bring DD over and play with their kids. I used to know lots of parents from DD's day care but most of those kids went to other schools for kindergarden - W stayed in touch with some but I couldn't because of my job and I figured if W was in touch in a way we all were...heh.

I think for me comfortable would be meeting people through activities like on meetup.com hiking/camping/biking kinda activities. Again, I feel I'd be better off finding people in similar situations as me because they might be more understanding.

ST, you're right. One email from W sends me spiraling out of control. In a way I do better when I don't hear from her. You're right I think this schedule may work out to be better for me too. The hard part will be not seeing her for the whole weekend (3 days actually). Thanks to you too for saying I'm a cool dad. It's so nice to hear that after doing the best I can and feeling like I'll never be as good or as special to her as her mom - maybe when she's a teenager and hates her mom! laugh

ST, you're only 33, how'd you get to be so smart?! smile
