asitis,
Yeah, it really is a twisted dichotomy right now. The mediation went smoothly. I really thought that it would be the end for anything to do with STBX. Once she finalizes the D, I'm done. However, her apparent reluctance to finish it requires me to continue to walk the line for just a little bit longer. I'm trying to force the present reality without being a jerk.

As far as her birthday is concerned, I had already planned for the kids to get something for her. That'll be it.
