Picked up the boys. W and I had a pleasant conversation. She sent me home with food again. Offered other stuff too. Walking out the door, s6 said "We better be a family again by Christmas or I will run away to your house." W wasn't close enough to hear that one. I asked him about it when we got to my place, and he just said that he is going to be very mad if I am not home by then. (My feelings exactly!) He said that he doesn't talk to mommy about it though, just me. Kinda wish he did talk to her... it may help? I'm sure that she knows anyway.

As I was getting ready to leave, I asked of she was over her cold. Then as I got the boys in my car, I asked if she had gotten caught up at work. I tried to validate her concerns and struggles. She then told me that she is going to work off and on through the weekend. Will see her again Saturday at ball.

Nothing as great as I had hoped. Nothing negative at all. She is still the one I want, but I can make it without her. I will just have to distance myself much farther physically and emotionally. Hope it doesn't come to that! More pma will be called for this weekend. Easy when it's just for me and the boys. Even easier when W and I are getting along. Incredibly hard to detach during that though
