So today I picked up S from school, W is working. She's going to try to get off work early to come pick him up. She's definitely been spending more time with him, which I feel is a good thing. She's finally recognizing that this has been really hard on him, and even though we're still apart, at least I can see that now she actually appears to be trying to put him first (rather than just being totally selfish even with him).
Yesterday when she came to pick him up, she wanted to stay and plan out who will be keeping S for the next few weeks (because we will both be working some strange hours). She cracked some jokes, and we laughed, but we stayed on topic and I didn't really get the feeling she was trying to throw any jabs. So that was nice.
She may have to move out of her apartment and in with a friend (who has a S that's one of S's friends, and the friend is a lady...even though that doesn't matter all the time with W), so she's definitely still trying to hang on to some kind of control over her financial life, but it doesn't really seem to be working very well.
Either way, the new trend of her actually talking to me like a human, spending more of her time with S, and just trying to keep peace is nice.
11 more days till the D is dismissed. Fingers crossed.
