I haven't told W about the Harley yet, wanted to get calmed down and things under control first.
She texted me Sunday night "I decided not to go to New York". I called her and we had a nice talk. She had a huge fight with SIL and said she couldn't be around her. I wonder if it had anything to do with me, but didn't pry. I just listened. SIL is in town, and they're supposed to road trip back to NY together. W was even considering moving there. So this is a big deal. At the end of the convo, she said "I haven't been by the lawyer again, hopefully next week". I told her I was very glad to get the AAA card instead of D papers. She said "I thought you would be".
I talked to her last night and she said SIL was coming over and they were going to try and make up. I told her I was glad for that. Positives I think. I just need to keep getting my crap under control and learn to live on my own. It's so easy to wallow in self pity or anger when I have to do things like laundry or shopping that she's so great at. Like you mentioned River, that's exactly the kind of relationship she does NOT want to get back into.
