CL,
I think you should have already advised your W that there will be no further offenses of this nature tolerated, make it a statement of fact with no ambiguities. (Remember your wake up call).

If you think there is a slightest possibility of your W continuing with this kind of behavior you should already be consulting your attorney to see what your options are.

CL, unless you toughen or change tact as you keep promising to, your W will continue to "poop in your lunch box and convince you it’s a chocolate bar" and more worrying I think you’ll continue to accept it.

There’s still time to change things but it all up to you.

Take care
