Quick update - Last night s13 had a baseball game, and this was the 1st time W and I were going to be together at son's game, and be around each other for longer than 5 minutes. But.... The game was rained out.
W was supposed to receive her several thousand dollar refund this past Wednesday. But W called today and told me she has not received the refund, the children have no food, and her rent is late. I told her I would check to see what the status of the refund was.
This is different - in the past I have had moments that delighted at the misfortunes/tough times that W was going thru. But today? I had compassion on her, and I felt sorry for what she was facing. I don't understand why this change in my emotions, but it feels better.
