Well, I haven't posted in a month, so I guess I should provide an update.

My daughter and I had a great Thanksgiving break (I got the whole week off) at Disneyworld and visiting my aunt in South Carolina. I've settled down better into the teaching role, though it still takes too much time and stresses me too often. I'm broke right now, so the divorce will have to wait another month or two.

Meanwhile, W is still in the same miserable spot, according to her parents, whom I now speak with occasionally. She nearly had a bad manic episode (thinking that she is the devil, etc.), and that has started her taking her meds again. Her father told me that whenever he tries to talk to her about our marriage, she just starts crying. I never talk to her except about our daughter, but I did show her our Disney pictures, and the outward happiness that we had a good time clearly masked a pain that she wasn't there.

Anyway, I've decided not to hang around Baton Rouge for Christmas (since W will have her this year). I'm going to go somewhere fun for a couple of weeks, and hopefully work while I'm doing it. My brother worked at a ski resort during the Christmas break a few years ago, and he had a great time skiing when he wasn't working.
