Under New Management

Is that an old stock car, with a window net? I truly hope your lady friend makes you happy, and the extended family doesn't expect to move in too. Sounds like you got the mentioned "reset' button hit. Smooth sailing now.
It's just got a smashed front windshield and no side glass.

She does make me happy. We are going to remain friends until I get my life settled down. She has her own place with her children, and if it works out down the road, we will worry about that when the time comes. It's nice to have her in my life, so I'm happy for that alone.

Yep, almost out of the choppy waters!
