Well, I saw W today at MIL's B-day party. W didn't know I was back and was surprised to see me there. There were lots of awkward pauses in conversation. She got a sad look on her face as I told her about my trip to the Smokies. She's never been but has always wanted to go, and I think she was sad that she couldn't have shared that experience with me.
Eventually, I kind of took her aside and kindly let her know that I wasn't angry with her and I'll be there for her when she's truly ready to end it with OM (though not for anymore halfway attempts to try). I actually thought that she'd appreciate my saying this, but she said "I don't want to talk about that now" and stormed out in front of everyone ... odd.
May 1 and the Disney trip with D4 can't come soon enough. It was so wonderful to spend the day with her today -- she was so overjoyed to see me and spend time with me.
I got my scores back from my teacher certification exams. I scored in the top 1% on my subject exam (middle school math), so that's exciting and should help me get some more choices in where I teach, both next fall and long term.
The LORD is near to all who call on him, to all who call on him in truth." (Psalm 145:18)
