I can say that I had a fairly good weekend, with only a few relapses. I think that I managed that detachment thing quite well and it seems to be doing us some good.

W has been around quite a bit to spend time with D8 and although she has been late here and there and even didn't show once when she told D8 she would, I didn't make anything of it and just kept D8 busy until W got here. When W got here, I didn't actually judge her or criticize her, I was just very pleasant and gave her space to be with D8.

Our conversations have been on the nice friendly side as well and today, she even offered to come and see a few houses with me. We were out with the car as a family for a few hours, stopped at a park (where I had fun playing with D8) and did a bit of groceries together, and everyone seemed to be enjoying themselves.

This evening, W asked about my meditation classes (D8 has been talking a lot about it and the fact that I go every day, because she's noticed the changes in me). W wanted to know where I went so I gave her the leaflet and told her as little as possible. The main thing I said is that it was one-on-one and that it was free.

Will she go? Who knows? She sure seemed intrigued and curious about it and I'm sure she's noticing the results as well. Does it matter? I suppose it does but strangely enough, where I'm at now, i don't really care and most importantly, I don't want to read anything into it. I'm choosing to get off her roller coaster and not to be affected by her twists and ups and downs.

So far so good,
