Both you (Denver) & Starsky taught me in the beginning to only respond to kid related emergency texts! All others can wait a couple of hours, if not a day or two. And all texts/emails that have no meaning what-so-ever, other than a statement, need not be replied to!
That really sunk in with me when I heard that, due to the fact that my emotions would take control & I would respond too quickly & end up shoving my foot in my Arse afterwards.
Positive thing is that you have a month before she plans on coming down, so you have time to regroup & post here rapidly for thoughts/insight!
