Thanks for the input Dogma and Gabe. In answer to your question Bruce, I guess it doesn't bug me much except for the feeling that it shouldn't be an open house because we are divorced. At least she knocks anymore, before she just came on in. Sometime I'd like to be in bed with another woman when she barges in. As far as the kids goes I don't want it to be a harsh transition where suddenly the house they used to live in is off limits. Maybe the answer is as Gabe suggested that this is literally leaving the door open a crack...rather than just the metaphorical door we usually talk about.
