So, there is a path ahead. She said she's been doing a lot of thinking, and we should continue to live apart for a while. She did take note of the changes I'm trying to make, but also dredged up a lot of stuff from the past.

She pretty much acknowledged an EA, but not a PA. Have to take that for what it's worth - just takes one spark... But, that's one of the things I can't control. To be fair this is the hardest thing of all to not obsess about, but also the one thing that it's critical that I overcome. Trying not to focus on what I can't change.

I have plenty of GAL activities to do around here. Since we were in the process of moving, I am continuing at the old place getting it ready to sell, which is going to happen regardless.

I had been at the library and so I had The Divorce Remedy in my grubby hands when I replied to her email. I tried to reply in a way that let her know I appreciated her honesty, communication, etc. and not get defensive about the things she brought up. Was a little dicey with some things that I had to touch on, but I think I did very well with that, all things considered.
