Thanks AJ,
Just tonight I had a convo with my D14. Her mom called and wanted to talk about school. We can't get her into the private school and time is running out. I had hoped to but the IRS audit held my return back until at least 12 weeks and it just won't happen. Her mom didn't want her going to the private school so she wouldn't have to pick her up and drop her off. (she'll get a bus from her mothers home). We talked about which school she wanted to go to and why. I asked her how she felt and she is scared but is being brave. I told her that no matter how far away she is that she knows I will just be a phone call away and I will ALWAYS be there when she needs me. It may just be that I'm a little farther away but promised that she will be the most important thing in my life. She told me that she knows this and that I tried my best to get her into the school she wanted. We than spent some time looking up her options.

I'm really proud of her. She is a great kid and joked with me about her not being good at making new friends since she has always known the kids she was in school with her whole life (same group of 8 kids since Kinder!). I told her about my HS experience and how I coped going from middle school to HS. I really hate that she has to go through all this "stuff" at the same time through no fault of her own. But I also know that she is smart enough to deal and good enough to not get in trouble.

Looks like my W isn't going to be going to the yard sale this weekend. Her father is coming into town and she is going to spend her time with him. My poor MIL is freaking out and I told her that I would stop by and help out some since W can't make it. The convo. with my W was very odd. She talked to me about the school and I asked about her dad. She then told me about her trip to the gyno and having polyps removed from her cervix and it not being cancer and it being the cause of her bleeding, etc. Umm, can't have a decent talk about a clock but wants to tell me all about that? I thanked her for speaking to me about D's school before just enrolling her and giving me an opportunity to speak with D before she just made a decision. W seemed a bit more lucid tonight. She didn't mention what happened Sunday at all. I'm sure she will be talking to her dad when he visits and she may be back to hostile again, who knows. I have no expectations!
