The boys and I are having a great time together. Our water rafting trip was memorable. I fell in the river twice...we also camped out and fished a lot. I fished nothing. S12 fished two rainbow trouts. S11 and S7 are having a blast.

W called yesterday to check on the boys and to tell me that her car is not doing good at all. She's asking me if she can use the credit card to charge the repairs...I wasn't sure what to say. I just said I'll check on that.

Someone told me once that W can't live the life of a divorced woman and enjoy the benefits of a married woman by using the money earned by the husband...I don't know what to do. W was very nice over the phone (probably because she was asking for money), but somehow, she's been nice for the past few encounters.

Shall I help her out financially or let her find her own solution with her parents, brothers, etc? I always keep in mind that repairing the car will ultimately help the boys as well, who are my priority for now..."Punishing" her would also "punish" the boys...

No idea...
