Probably had my best night of successfully following DB rules last night. W dropped off S after spending a couple hours with him. I listened as she went on about her problems and her disgust with others around her. I ignored the couple of baited comments without 'chiming in'. I validated without criticism of those I was hearing about, which is a big 180 for me and without offering advice. I finished making dinner for my S and shared a glass of wine with W and then let her leave without looking for attention or following her to the door. All in all feeling good about my performance.
This last weekend I took S out for another round of fun at the locl playhouse and then to lunch. W asked to come along so we let her and everything was freindly. She seemed withdrawn much of the time but I think I did well at not worrying about it and just enjoying time with S. Only 7 weeks until we facate the old home we have been in for more than 7 years. Can't wait to get into new apartment and start figuring things out for me for this summer.
