Journalling: Still working away Monday - Friday. Latest contract is happy for me to work from home on a Friday, which helps. AS for GAL, I train 3-4 times a week, but that's it. Weekends spent with D5 or working round the house & garden.
Still in limbo. Sometimes we fight, sometimes we ML, sometimes it's normal-ish, sometimes it's alien. Nothing moving on the house, really. Will talk to the real estate agent soon.
L advised to work out the post sep living arrangements, as she sees that as key, including thinking of ways for W to be able to afford a mortgage. She even suggested seeing if we could split the equity more favorably and I act as guarantor on a mortgage for W, seeing as D is only 5 and I will need to provide a home (with W) for her until she finishes full time education (as well as a home with me).
Christmas will be here soon, and W is buying presents, including for me. I've got some things for her too. Will try and make it a happy time for the kids.
2018 will see some changes.
