Never ending nightmare
I was very much looking forward to dropping SD off at school, then getting breakfast alone with SO and going to work. But of course, SO took too long to get ready, so instead of sending SD to school with her breakfast, since she missed her snack time because we're running late, here I sit, at breakfast with SD. I keep thinking it's almost over, but the time without her may never come, I fear. This is some kind of government conspiracy. I'm gonna be 50, wondering why she hasn't gone back to her mom's yet!

I'm starting to wonder if I shouldn't disengage now, but I'm scared that after 5 months of trying to be involved, it will just end up sending the wrong signals to SD.
