I made a dbing no-no and called WAW a couple days ago. I admitted that I called just to check in. We wound up talking longer than I thought we would. There was some R talk, but I told her I would prefer to discuss that face to face.
Yesterday, WAW showed up at my house unannounced. Kids and I were just about to have tacos for dinner. WAW made dinner for us, visited for a while and then went home. She was here to see S16, but it's been a while since she came to the house at all.
This morning, she called me regarding billing issues with my cell phone. Again, first time she contacted me in a while.
I can view these things as crumbs or baby steps, but at least it appears she is once again getting comfortable being around me and that bodes well for the future regardless of the final outcome.
