Thank you Gerda.

Sorry for the delayed response. I've been under the weather.

As for the childhood, my XW actually had a father that went into MLC as well. When she was in the 4th grade, he dropped her off at school and she didn't see him again for 20 years when she decided to look him up. He just split. He dropped her off and that was it. Sad huh? The funny thing is, when she told me about this when we were dating, I couldn't believe it. Even as a 17-year-old kid, I remember thinking "I hope that this doesn't come back and bite me later on." Weird huh?

Anyways, I'm going to go for now. I'm pretty sick.

Been thinking about my Bible. Tis the season....

Tad,

I hope you feel better soon. Hope the kitties are providing you much love and comfort while you are ill.

I knew that those little girls were going to give you a new lease on life. You're a good fur baby daddy and they are growing up and into beautiful young cats. They adore you as much as you do them.

Sorry for the late response.

I hope everyone had a nice Christmas.

I really thought I was pretty much done here, but I have a question that I'd like your thoughts on.

Without going into too much detail, my S25 had a medical emergency this afternoon. Everything eventually turned out okay, but I was not able to get to the hospital. XW did. Needless to say, we spent nearly 4 hours texting back and forth as she was keeping me updated on the situation. From time to time, she would joke around and even send a few smiley's my way.

When it was all over and I thanked her for keeping me updated, she says:

XW: "Of course. Our son."

ME: "Yeah"

XW: smile

ME: smile "See ya."

XW: "Over and out! LOL"

(This is something that my grandfather always used to say while talking on the phone.) Weird that she would say it since I thought she wanted to erase that chapter of her life and anything that had to do with me or my family....

She seemed like her old self. The last few times I have seen her or communicated with her, she has seemed like her old self. The person I know and loved.

Not sure if I like it.

The question is:

Is it weird to maybe wish that she was still angry?

Asking because it still hurts a bit when I see the old XW.
