Jak and Matilda,
I did have a nice holiday visiting my hometown, where the siblings and families met for the long weekend.

My W and I finished our six week group lessons sessions. My W had a good time, and said that she wanted to repeat the next session. I'm still a little nervous having her there, but am more used to it. I know it would hurt her feelings if I shared any reservation about her being there.

I continue to go to the weekday dance venue by myself to practice my skills, and develop a network of lady dancers. Some weeks are better than others, but I commit to staying at least an hour. Currently, I commit to two dance venues and one group lesson per week to improve and maintain my skills. My W and I usually practice weekly also.

My W will likely resign from her position within the next week. She's nervous about it, but I will support her decision, if she feels this is what she needs to do to move forward. Her cooking job covers 80% of her net income. Her short-term plan is to supplement this with a part-time job.

We've been sleeping together as my sleeping room is getting a makeover with some new paint, and removing the carpet to expose the hardwood floor. It feels odd sleeping with my W. She is distant physically at this time. I give her space for now, but don't think I could do this indefinitely.
