That is good that both of you did take responsibility for some of the problems in your M with you validating your own areas that you could have done better. Good job!
It is good that she backed off after you told her what would happen if your sitch did not change. My W was just waiting for the right time to D me. Make sure you know the reasons she is backing off. It is not always as you would think. Just keep an open mind on what she might be thinking about.
WAS do lie, and it is good you are aware when she is because it keeps you focused on what you need. Only you will know when you have had enough in LIMBO.
Everyone makes mistakes in situations such as yours. It is how you learn from them. Keep doing your best, and please don't wonder if she will realize you are doing this for the family. She does know even if she cannot admit it.
Take care yourself and your family like you have been!
