Trying to get WAW back

[DaveJ]

Feeling like tired and down today and just want to rant a little. I think couple things are causing me to feel this way. Yesterday the W seems to have shut the door on a November Retrouvaille. I guess my pipe dream of being home this year got busted. Oh well, pick myself up and keep going. I told her maybe we can see what happens in a month or so. She said ok... Although I get the feeling that it will be a long time for her to work through her issues and make herself strong again. I guess I'm just dreading spending the holidays by myself. So even though we are making some progress between the two of us I don't seem to feel good about it. Don't know why.

Also my parents aren't knowing how to be supportive. They really don't understand the emotional aspect of things and don't understand why sometimes people need time and space to work through things. They keep asking where we are and if W has a timeline. I understand they are frustrated that I can't be living at home and be with the family. But it's like if you guys can't be supportive, then just leave me alone! Definitely puts a damper on my PMA. It's just sad when I feel more at ease talking to the MIL than my mother....
