Thanks for the support everyone, it’s really helping me to get by one day at a time.
The DR book has arrived and I’m about half way through my first reading of it. A lot of it makes sense.
I’m trying the 180s. Her L has indicated he wants information about financial settlement by Jan 10, so that’s making the whole “be patient” thing fairly difficult.
But yes, she needs to be left in God’s hands atm.
Had a great 48 hours with kids and just about to return them back to her for a whole week. It’s easy to be despondent about that, but I need to focus on the wonderful 48 hours instead of the negative. I’ll be happy, and cheerful, and resilient when I return the children. No more begging/pleading here. I have a life to get on with and I intend to do that - whether or not she wants to be part of it!
