Hi Painter!!! I'm glad to see that you have found yourself at a better place with regards to your M. As long as things as stable and calm, I can't see any reason to rush into the D process. Believe me. It's a highly over-rated experience. I would have much rather stayed in my semi-limbo no-contact bubble than this seemingly-unending legal process. Yuck.

Eventually I'll be moving my own story into the surviving thread, too, but I'm barely into this D thing yet, and there are miles to go before I sleep, as they say.

Meanwhile, I just wanted to say hello and to send you my best. Thank you for checking in on me!
