Journelling,

Have had a pretty good week, no conflict with W.

She went out last night (Fri) and left DD with her friend (due to Fri nights being my night to go out), out today and tonight (Sat), then asked if I could take DD to a birthday party on Sun. All in all, she is so self absorbed in herself that she does not really care about how DD feels.

She is so into herself that our agreement of taking turns to spend quality time with DD has gone in one ear and out the other. We agreed that I would look after her on Mon, Tue, Wed, and Sat nights, with Sun being open for either. She now has included Fri and Sun in her schedule to go out with OM.

I have bitten my lip, as it is not worth arguing over. I prefer to be spending the time with DD anyway. But W is in an emotional state that you cannot reason with, and everything she does is "fine", that other people have issues with her being happy etc etc

I took DD to the "Wave pool" today (like an indoor beach, with huge waves). I was in my board shorts and singlet, and W could not look at me when we spoke. Everytime she looked up, it was as if she felt uncomfortable "gawking" at me. It gives me a sense of satisfaction knowing that I look younger and fitter than when we got married, and she finds it hard to take that she has walked out on a "better model", of myself, and is stuck with Joe Average.

W is very easy to read, would be hopeless at cards \:\)

Anyway, Had a good week personally. Will be making soft shell tacos tonight for DD and will be watching the Rugby later tonight with friends.

Life is still good regardless of the hurdles \:\)

All my best to everyone,
AndyV
