I am glad I could help you turn on a light bulb. The two books you are talking about are two that I have been reading the past few days and they have given me some much-needed insight into what my W is going through.
The W was here a few minutes ago to pick up S12. I really have a hard time when she is around. I just want to hug her and tell her what is in my heart, but I know better and keep myself in check.
While it doesn't bug me as much as it did before, it still hurts to see her without her ring on. I can tell you that I ALWAYS have mine on. And wouldn't be caught without it especially when she is going to be around. She may want to feel single, but I am not ready or willing to give up being married. Not today, not tomorrow, and not EVER!
Did I mention that I HATE weekends? Ugh! It was always our family time. And that is something else I miss dearly. I told my S10 when he asked what he could do to help get mommy home that he could pray. I also told him that daddy is very strong, loves him, his brother and his mom very much and that he can count on me to make sure that everything will be okay. He said he will help as much as he can. I sure have great kids!
Well, I need to get S10 to a birthday party and hit the gym to work out some of my frustrations. Have a great afternoon. I am so glad that you are there for me to share with. You are helping me make a difference. Thank you. Keep up all that you do!
