Hi everyone, I hope life finds you well. I don't have really much to report outside of life is normal and just moving right along. I have the girls this week so we went out Trick or Treating last night with the neighbors and then later we stopped by the Dr's house so we could walk with her and her son for a bit. The Dr. and I are still dating, we spend the weekends together when we don't have the kids and when we do have the kids we get together with all the kids maybe one night or two night during the week. Tonight me and the girls are going over to her place for a sleepover with her and her son (this is the first time for the kids). The time that we spend together as a psuedo blended family is increasing. She still has not met my mom and stepdad yet or the XW but for the most part she has met everyone else. She makes marriage comments here and there, makes statements about places we are going to visit after we retire so I know that is where she is headed. I am still in no hurry, it doesn't scare me when she makes those comments but I am still in no rush. It is very comfortable, a comfortable pace and I don't find my emotions controlling me, I feel very centered and in control.

Outside of that things are really great. The girls are good, just wrapping up Soccer season. We have 1 game left and a couple of tournaments to close out the year and then basketball will start for my youngest.

Nothing new with the XW. I have the girls this week and she came over to the house for Trick or Treating. She texted me and asked if it was ok. Fine by me she is certainly welcome. She still sends me random stuff, things that she finds funny that she runs across, pictures, etc. She did get in a minor fender bender and texted me about that. At our D's soccer game I helped her tape up the mirror but I still don't ask her any questions about her personal life or get involved outside of it involving my girls and she respects my boundaries. I think she is still dating the same guy but I really don't know for sure. I still have not met him.

All for now, I hope everyone is doing well.
