oh whapu, my heart sinks as I read your post, I'm so sorry you had such an awful time))))))) I agree with MrH, your W is so self-absorbed right now and acting her shoe size, unbelievable. I so wish you wouldn't have to quiet your meetings, perhaps you could replace them w/a good C now and then to keep your sanity amid all the chaos?
I see you doing so much work and I do give you credit for trying to make your W's bday a good one, even if she doesn't deserve it, for doing so much at home, not every man has to deal with so much housework WHILE holding a job, you are amazing in my book.
Hope you find some time alone to decompress and detoxify emotionally from the crap your W is tossing at you, it's hard to stay mentally healthy around someone who deflects toxins around you, hard not to get dragged down.. but I pray you are able to remember that her mind is distorted, that you are a great father and a good husband, if only she'd stop looking at her unhappiness in the mirrow she'd see this.
Be not afraid...I will repay you for the years the locusts have eaten Joel2
