LITB, it's good to see you back around. I'm glad you had a overall good visit to NM. I was sorry to hear about the OM thing at the beginning of your trip, but I'm glad to hear rest of it was pretty good.
I'm really thankful your situation has brought you closer to God.
Regarding the L thing, I am sorry to hear things are getting jacked up. They're probably just doing their job. They're probably used to most people who just want to get it over with and they want to do the same.
I totally agree, you and your W have come a long way. If nothing you will be in an amicable situation - you're right on that one, and hopefully that's only the worst case scenario.
