I think this is a big mistake. Frankly, knowledge is power. Talking to the legal team will help you understand your rights./ And what rights you are giving up by continuing on your current path. I think you should be talking to a lawyer ASAP.

I don't know, but for her to hug me like that was a lot different. I think it means the end.

I'm guessing D papers will arrive by next Friday when they go away for a week.


W will be here again dropping of the kids off first thing in the morning.

How can you stop trying to guess and hypothesize and analyze and speculate? It is such a waste of energy. WHO KNOWS what it meant. Maybe MIL was sad. Maybe she misses you. Maybe her cat died. Maybe she is worried about gun safety in your neighborhood and is glad youre safe. Who knows? As for D papers...theyll come when they come. Why spend weeks on edge waiting for them.

You need to focus on you and your life and your kids and GAL and what YOU CAN CONTROL.
