It IS still very new for you. Whining is OK, when done in the right outlet (here). We'll let you whine for awhile. Then, we'll work on helping you get through this.
Do you still see your kids? What about taking them out one night for ice cream? You're wife needs to see the happy, fun you.
No matter what, no whining in front of her. I'm sure you know that already.
6 weeks for the book?...that's an awful long time. Do you know about 180's? Can you think of at least a couple you can do now?

I do see the kids, I have them on the weekends and stuff, but they don't feel comfortable at my mothers house, so they wont be staying here again . I'm bumping up the house hunting because of that. I take them out places every time i have them, and we have fun, but it's when i have them that I miss W the most.

Yeah, 4-6 weeks, I had to order it from the US coz' there are no suppliers here that have it.

I'm already doing 180's sort of, The email was one, which kinda went toooooooooooo far. I realized what I did that didn't work with that so it's not going to happen again. I'm getting out more and I am taking the kids places, which is different (before it was a money constraint more than anything) I'm going to the pool 2 times a week, and I'm trying to start drawing again (which my wife used to love me doing, and I'm trying to start a band at the moment. Apparently i'm a good singer and it will help me build confidence (which I very much lack). I want to join the jym when I have the money as well. I'm going to start taking action instead of waiting till the time is right. Is that enough for now, or does it have to be really more something that she will see?
