Andy if you ever want an experienced DBer friend, you are welcome to contact me to talk on the 'phone or meet for coffee. I've been at this for over 2 years and have gone full circle, so I know what you are going through.
E-mail me on walkingback_db@hotmail.com and I'll give you my 'phone number.
Cheers, V

Never make someone a priority, who makes you an option.
2 YEARS? I have just gone a little over 2 mos, and I am already tired. How do you keep inspired? I have been ready to give up several times. But trying to keep my family together keeps me going. If it were not for andyv and the others here I would have failed and given up already.

And if I claim to be a wise man, well It surely means that I don't know
Yes I am awake, just got back from dropping DD off at school.
Had a pretty good morning,
My W knocked on my bedroom door at around 6:30am to ask if I could drop DD off at school (W normally drops her off at before school care at 7am).
She told me that DD wanted me to drop her off this morning (last night). I said yes, no probs, and she said "Thank you Andy". As I have mentioned before numerous times, she only ever calls me Andy when we were happy together, early on in the sitch (as recent as 4 weeks ago) she was calling me Andrew, or when she refered to DD it would be "ask your dad" or " see with your father". Now it is Andy and "ask dad" etc.
I normally get DD ready at around 8:15am so I decided to sleep in a little. But at around 6:45am, I attended the little boys room, and on walking past W's bedroom I could see W (all dressed for work) snuggled up with DD, with the doona covering them both. I have not seen her do this post bomb. She used to do it all the time when we were a happy family.
Also last night when I got home from work at around 9:30pm, W was sitting in the family room alone, snuggled up in a blanket, watching TV. She normally goes to bed early (if she is not out late) and her interest in actually sitting to watch her favourite programs died for the last several months.
I had a brief pleasant chat, asked her if she would like a tea or coffee (as I was making one for myself), then I let her be (part of my lovingly dark project which I have been doing for 4 weeks).
I adjourned to my office for the rest of the night, I heard W adjourn to her room at around 10:45pm. I was tempted to sit with her but I believe that would have been the wrong approach to good DBing.
If nothing else the last few weeks have made me take control of my life and emotions, and I am feeling better about things, regardless of the final outcome.
Anyway, enough about me.

I hope one day they can put us both in Success stories, wouldn't that be great.
Also, eventually catching up to have a beer together after this is all over (hopefully with the outcome we want).
I try not to look into anything anymore. It is nice to see the positive changes in W, but you know like I do, things can turn in an instant.
Maybe I will write a book, possibly even call it "AndyV's trials and tribulations with a can full of MOJO".
Anyway, here is a new improved, aged and fermented, top shelf serving of MOJO for you.

Please do not skull the whole thing at once, sip slowly my friend, and maybe add a twist of lime.
