I had a pleasant surprise this morning. Means little yet...
I stepped out the front door to ask a stranger a question about their dog. The wife made the statement/question "You are (W's) husband aren't you? We bought such and such property through her office." Won't read anything into it but was tickled to hear that out of their mouths. The H asked about my D19 and how she was doing since her incidences last week. He may have been in her office when the call came in.

Grand-D and mother are coming in this week. Will be interesting how interaction will take place.

I also had a call from MIL thanking me for sitting with FIL this past Sun. She said he was much more talkative that evening.

Not much but my little rock pile is slowly getting larger.
