I've been thinking about this. Idk how much more limited our contact will be. The kids are young but then we're into teenage things, college, grandkids, etc. it will never stop. But that's thinking too far ahead.
I've stopped w/pictures of the kids and anything else I miss sharing w her. Only necessary things. We have an agreement for Wednesday nights and I have them Saturdays. So contact twice a week minimum.
Tonight she sent me a meme after work. I texted back another minimal text recognizing it but not over friendly.
I also think her response last week was her guilt. I think she was trying to get me upset to justify herself. I just found out she signed our papers last week.
Strangely, most of the time when she is here whatever I'm feeling melts away for the moment, but sometimes not, like Monday before last. And other times it comes back to bite me later. More work for me I guess.
