(((((((((ss)))))))))) Thanks for explaining more about the situation with your ex. It's wonderful that you have remained such good friends. But I do hope he will acknowledge that living together again is not really a viable option. If you say that he has a tendency to change course, then, it sounds like there is a good chance that will happen. I understand so well about falling into unhealthy patterns.....

I'm glad that this visit went well overall, but yesterday's Mr Hyde episode must have been so draining on you. I really hope you have found some peace today. At least it sounds as though you have your house back to yourself again. I hope you have spent some healing time in your sanctuary ((((((((((ss)))))))))))))))
