Lee! Great to hear from you. I hope you are doing well with H. I only have a few moments so I'll check on your sitch tonight.
Last night, I decided to sleep in bed with W, which made her huffy because she thought I made a permanent retreat to the basement. I guess this was a 360. I said the sofa bed was too uncomfortable and I wanted a good night's sleep. W said she'll just sleep downstairs for now on.
BUT, since I have an early morning flight tomorrow for an overnight biz trip, I'll sleep downstairs again tonight so I don't bother anyone in the morning. She'll be out late with a campaign fundraiser (OM involved of course) and will get home to see me downstairs--which will put her off-balance again.
W made her first venture to the gym this morning at 5:45 and was surprisingly friendly when she got back and I asked her how it went. I also promised to get home early so she could make her campaign event on time and she even responded softly to my "Have a good day," as I left with a "You too." Usually, I get nothing, sarcasm, or a mumble. Not anything to read into, but certainly a more pleasant way to start the day. Perhaps D5's comment that W is mean to me hit a nerve since all the kids were present.
With my trip, there will be no real contact with W until Friday night or Saturday, which again gives us space. PMA is still high--for now, but I have a busy work week ahead.
I hope you are doing well with H. I only have a few moments so I'll check on your sitch tonight.
