I was snooping. no excuses

I am sure she has noticed that I am not as "happy" as I was previously but I don't feel that I am slipping into old habits. I am withdrawing and trying not to spend as much time with her. I am trying to let her deal with having the kids by herself without help for a while. My old habit was to try to spend more time with her, that is definitely not the issue. I am still trying to do the things that make me happy but it is getting more difficult due to the financial crunch that I am beginning to feel. (I am now covering most of the same bills on half the income.)

I don't know I've gotten so good at not bringing it up that I don't know how to approach the topic. \:\)
Actually I think the R discussion is possible but is a minefield because as soon as her job or OM come up she is on the defensive and firing up the pitch on the castle walls.
