Oh boy, I don't think I agree at all about contacting her first. I understand the rules, I swear I do. Here's the thing: these people are YOUR FAMILY. And that you want to protect them is a GOOD THING within reason. I do not AT ALL believe that asking if she is safe and off icy roads is pursuing. I honestly think that if you hadn't made sure that they were ok that there would be something wrong. I, personally, would not have had a lot of respect for that.
Additionally, I think that her texts were good. If she was not interested and didn't want your attention when you asked her if she was home safe, she could have answered, "yes, thanks." But that is not what happened, she offered additional information. Also, she kept the conversation going and it was you who ended it. That's also a good thing. She told you to let the faucets drip, again, a good thing. Why, it shows that she cares and trying in a way to take care of you.
I know this is so hard. I know you are trying so hard. Try to be peaceful because you are doing awesome! I am praying for you!!!

LIS - Thank you for all of your optimism!! I love reading your posts bc they always remind me of the good in my sitch. And I don't think that your BSing me either. I just think that you are seeing the glass half full rather than half empty. I hope that your not BSing me anyway!
I'm sorry that I haven't been posting much on your thread as of late. As you probably know, I was having problems with my posts, so somewhat became discouraged from posting. And also, I have had a lot on my plate with my sitch the past several days. I have been keeping up with what's going on with you though! Your H is having an internal battle on what HE wants. He wants both... you and freedom from M. The internal battle keeps him from committing one way or the other. Very similar to what is going on with Hope's H. If you read my posts on her thread, you will see that I experienced what both of your H's are going through. Anyway, that is JMO.
