Catching up (kinda)

WFH again. More deflection from up the road; spider sense is tingling and so eventually after work I arrive to confirm what I already knew to be true. 

*sighs*

After denial, anger came the calm, more tears, more anger and I eventually left in the last but one bus having seen the ship was on a more even keel....

I keep saying to Her that although there are bumps twists and turns on the road, the direction of travel is markedly different from 12 months ago. There is progress.
