@Bond: I think I'm good. When talk about D comes up I need to be a bit stronger. I'd say 90% of the time I'm fine, once in a while I get a little choked up but I'm past the crying and hysterics, that doesn't happen anymore.

When we're not discussing D stuff I'm either upbeat or neutral, usually upbeat and doubly so if the kids are around. Like last night when she was sitting at the table with and reading the paper. I just focused on what I was doing, writing press releases, and let her do her thing. When she did engage me I was interested and upbeat.

I would say 95% of our interactions are upbeat and positive. It's funny stories she's telling me or something funny the kids do. We laugh, I tell jokes and she laughs. That is perhaps the only real change I've noticed in her over the past month... she laughs at my jokes again. Maybe it's because I'm funny again or maybe it's a change on her part... that I'm not sure of.
