Thanks Steve for always taking interest in my sitch and providing me always with great information. You are right i should not shield my S.
I was feeling off today so I reached out to my friend - the priest that married us, He spoke about expecting nothing from W. Only accept her words that are sincere and from the heart. He also said our greatest sin and weakness is our PRIDE. He said until W can overcome her foolish pride and regain her humbleness and humility- at that point there will be a chance for R. He also said humans sometimes cling to their foolish pride at the detriment of their families. He restated that my trust need to put in Gods hands and allow Him to work on me , W and S.
I did receive a job offer from the start up company - it was a ok offer. I have reached out to a company that I interviewed before and they said that i have been put on a short list of 3 candidates to be interviewed in the near future for the posted position. It would be closer and offer a bit more security.
My W texted about cleaning up the basement and garage this week . I responded briefly that I had plans for the rest of the week (which is true) and that we could plan something for next week.
I have been busy GAL - praying , going to the gym, Cycling, taking my dog on walks thru trails and at the dog park, baseball and basketball with my S.I also go watch my nephew play baseball. So it has been busy although at times I still feel angry and sad. My health has improved and will continue to improve as I have made it a priority.
My S continues to be away babysitting while coming home on the weekends. I miss having him around.
The question I have is that my W has a birthday coming up in 2 weeks. Should I do anything aside from wishing her a happy bday(friendly cashier) ? Also shall I bring it up with S should he want to do something for his mom or just get out of the way? Thank you all for your support and prayers. Blessings.
