Journaling.

I picked my ex up at the gym at 1:30 to go and do our taxes but the wait was too long so we just went to go get her some art supplies. Then we came back to my place around 5 and s3 needed a nap. I made us some dinner and we watched dexter again. She had a shower then took a nap on the couch. This is the first time she's napped here in a very long time. She had another weird hot/cold attack. Its strange because she gets really hot and sweaty but feels cool to the touch. I comforted her as best i could and got her some water and a snack. Anyway, she seemed to feel better after a bit. It's her night with him so she asked if she should go home to give me some alone time. I said sure. I just dropped them off now.

The conversation throughout the day was normal stuff. Although at one point we almost had a small tiff. She made a point that she doesn't want to argue anymore and wants to find a clean way to communicate. I got the impression that she wants to forget the way we used to communicate and try and talk things out rationally. I was actually impressed she was saying this. She has a long way to go in validating and empathizing but I guess it's a start.

Oh ya, last night she had another breakdown and was crying. She was texting me and asked if I was upset with her. I have no clue why she said that. My responses were pretty normal. I think not seeing our son is really affecting her plus she is having some money issues right now. I'm helping her out as much as I can but money is tight for me right now given my situation.
