Thanks Leo, I really like the sound of that--"it will get better"...that's all I hope for these days you know.

So not sure what she said to the in-laws last week...but I didn't play her game of faking the "happy family" picture. I stayed home and enjoyed my solo time. So that was last couple of weekends ago.

This weekend I made plans with the kids. The plan was to go to my sister's house which is 2 hours away. So we went and the W went with us. Well the kids decided to stay til tomorrow so I had to drive 2 hours with the W.

We stopped by a casino on the way home. It was awkward but I held myself and tried detaching and try not to be rude to her. We gambled a little and we had an on time. On the drive home, We talked and we shared about past family sitch, her family my family..she initiated the talk in the car and I shared I listened and acted as if.

So now I'm here solo with her in our house and no kids...so awkward. I did made a joke with her to break the ice saying "oh no kids and we have the house to ourselves, what you wanna do?" And she said don't get any ideas...I get it...oh well.

Soooo we will see what the night brings lol smile...I have it together drop the rope and no expectations right?
