I'm putting aside my work schedule to give y'all an update. It looks like a have a developing situation on my hands, and I'll save that for the next post.
Over the last month or so, I've still been GAL'ing strong of course. I been able to do several cycling group rides. It's getting pretty cold here, but we've still been able to squeeze in a few rides. Still a very big part of all my church groups. In fact, I am planning hosting my Men's group tonight at my house and I've spearheaded a impromptu Bengals party afterward. I've started coaching my S's basketball team. This weekend I make my debut leading the fifth and sixth graders in the group discussion at church during their service. The GAL'ing has been going pretty well.
I even suffered my first illness in 23 months after Thanksgiving. It was just a mild cold, so it turned out to be no big deal, it just hampered the GAL'ing for about a week.
On the D front, I have been going back and forth with my L over the last month or so, going over the particulars of the agreement. Once we received all the paystub information, the feedback I got from my L is they were being very reasonable about things. However, admittedly, I have kind of drug my feet a bit. I've been moving the ball forward, but at a slow pace. My L will email me some responses. I'll wait a few days and respond with a long list of questions.
This Monday, I found out from my L I had run out the string. I had exceeded the allotted hours for a flat fee dissolution. My L was going to send me a statement for my review. It sux, but I have to deal with it, right?
During this time, about a week and half ago, I had one of the most "interesting" interactions I've had with W in a long, long time. She dropped off my S on a Sunday night. She came to the door with my S. She said my S wanted to show her the Christmas tree. I told her it was fine, as long as she could overlook the laundry I was folding. When she came in, she said a mutual friend of ours had said there were several good pictures of our S on my FB page, but she couldn't find them. I guess she didn't understand that she couldn't see them because she unfriended me last year. I just kept silent about it. Then, she notices the Bengals game is on TV. She asked if she could stay and watch it. The three of us sat on the couch and watched the last 4 minutes of the Bengals game together. Then, she started asking about dinner, and ultimately invited herself to come along for going out to dinner with us.
I was also starting to see some changes in her. Particularly that she was turning back to her faith. Dangit! I thought I was just about DONE. And then this. This was making her more attractive to me.
