Thanks for the posts Gabriel and Hoping. As of today, I have not had any communication with ex. It is kind of nice actually. I am busy getting in shape. I just bought a new CD player and CD and am heading to the gym now. It is really, really nice outside too.

I don't know what ex is doing. I hope that God is helping him get to a place where he can find some peace in his life.

I have worked really hard at being a good role model for ex. That is really the best thing I could have done. It is also the only thing I could have done.

I did my best--that is for sure. It is out of my hands now. Whatever the outcome, I feel it is meant to be.

Thanks everyone for the kind words and thoughts. I'll keep you posted.....Sam
