Fantastic to read how you are dealing with your retirement and life in general! This must also be very pleasant for your mum to still be able to go on adventures, this since she has you by her side. She has an incredible support from you. So great!

And what will be the new project?
As for XW, it's actually really harrowing to read your story. She obviously chooses it herself but how unhappy she must be these past few years. And this obsession with knives....what is all this, seems not healthy at all... So it looks like she remains tangled in her deep replay, this now for 6 years or so?
If you read all the stories on the MLC forum, see Gerda's story, your story, sjohn6, PLC, my own story, and so many others, all so different but they have one common factor, all of them are deeply unhappy. Some can't let go of the ex-partner and try to destroy the other, some don't know what they want and do touch-n-go's on a continuous basis, others walk away from it completely.
Fortunately, at some point we each gain the strength to deal with it in our own way and give everything a place to then continue our lives the best way possible.
