Thank you Sotto. That sounds like sound advice. I think all this stuff with my Mom kinda pushed us together a little... at least, I felt more open to his attention, because I was stressed.

Until he is living AWAY from OW, and solidly clean, nothing has really changed, no matter what he says.

It's one of those things where, when someone rejects you and disappears, then reappears, you kinda feel like filling them in on all they missed. Our youngest daughter has been doing the same thing. For me, there's this fear of him disappearing again, and I feel this urge to get in time, before the bomb drops again.

But, I'm really only interested in a NEW, and Improved MATT anyway. And, he's got a way to go. If it's meant to be, it will be.
