Kolja thanks for yourconcern on my S, he is doing much better today.
This morning W came in, checked her mail, said she was tired and was going to go to bed. She said she would try to get either her mother or her sister to watch S today, but if he wasn't here when I got home to call her at work. Not really any other conversation. She took a quick glance at the Retrouvaille papers I printed out for her, she said she would look at them later, and went to bed. A few minutes later I remembered she had to get son's prescriptions today, so I went to the bedroom to make sure she had money to get them. She said she didn't, so I told her to use my debit card. I asked her if she felt any better, she said not really. I told her to try and have a nice day at work, and left her so she could sleep. She told me to have a nice day at work.
When I got home, S wasn't there so I called W. We discussed who was going to watch S tomorrow, I told her my mom could. She said since she was going to be off at 5 pm and was off Saturday she wanted to have him tomorrow and didn't want drive out of her way to pick him up and her sister could watch him. So W will have him until at least Sunday (going to be a long weekend!)
I went to pick S up, had a good conversation with MIL. She brought up how hard all this is on S, and how she had a bad argument with W over the separation. MIL said she noticed a lot of change in me and told W same. I told MIL I have a lot of fight in me and told her about the Retrouvaille and the plan I had to try to start over at dating each other. I didn't want to say too much to her about M (I don't want her to be against W), even though she said she was on my side, and her heart was broken when W told her about separation. This was first time we talked about any of this.
When I left I felt like crying (though I didn't!) over what MIL said to me. I'll see W briefly tomorrow morning, then not sure when again, maybe Monday. As I said going to be long weekend with out her and S.
