Heres wishing everyone a new beginning this year and good progress for all of us!
Since my last update things are still moving in a slow, but good direction.
We have had several holidays together this year. On thanksgiving my 3 daughters, my ex, and I had desert together.On Christmas day we had dinner all of us had dinner together along with exchanging gifts. My ex gave me a $50 gift card to bass pro shops. Totally unexpected. I gave her and angel figuring holding a butterfly, both of which have become her symbols as she works through all that has gone on.
We continue to get together most sundays to have ice cream and talk mostly about our girls.
Yesterday for New Years Eve she and I went to a movie together followed by dinner at a steak house. We both had a good time. Over dinner we started a conversation over things that had happened. She spoke about how the mental health professionals have a long ways to go to understand the mentally ill and how to help the mentally ill.
I have high hopes to continue this conversation with her. I see it as the beginnings of working through stuff giving us an ability to maybe move forward.
Today I am am looking forward to what I hope will a great year. I have high hopes for myself and for all of you.
