Hi Elly, sorry it was a tense weekend. Yes, as you say, if you can disconnect from this and have a nice weekend regardless, you're really getting there. But, it's not easy and we are all 'works in progress.'

I hear you about the friend 'pep-talk.' Friends love to do this. A friend asked me how things were going this week. I told her H is filing for D. She said it's good this is happening as now I 'know who he really is.' And we could never reconcile because 'he would do this again.' Such certainty. I don't defend this anymore or say I hope to save the M. I just validate really...and don't set too much store by it. It's a good thing that I see it for what it is and it doesn't unsettle me as much as it once did....forward progress.....

Hope your week is going well my friend xx
