Eyes I think that is great news! I would love if my W would decide to show up like that...that must give you hope...good job on the 180 how often do you see W. I feel like you sometimes that were are so far into this maybe divorce will be the only way out but don't give up hope...this site is full of people who thought they would not make it but then they were piecing..again.
On another note they do have a climbing gym here maybe I will have to check it out...I have never climbed but my daughter did it last year and looked a lot of fun.
As far as the dog I am sorry to hear that with everything that is going on for kids that will be tough. My D really wants to get a hamster and I have been holding off but I told her if she got her grades up then I would and now she did get her grades up so oh well...what about a hamster?
