Thanks HP. The deck seems stacked against me as far as getting her calm enought to want to try something. Everyday, it's something new. Earlier in the week, we were having a nice email exchange and I thought I had an in when I got home. I get home to find her on the war path with the kids and her mood was gone. A couple days later, her family drama took over after a nice conversation. Now, her drama queen friend has dropped in. I feel like crap right now. W sent me an email with an apartment listing in it. That hit me in the face. But what can I do?

I'll do my best to initiate some action with her. The worst she can do...I fear she's already seriously involved with the cart boy. I'm not sure if it's sexual or not but there seems to be an emotional thing there.

I'll really have to work at keeping my sunny side up today after that email.
