One of the reasons I was drawn to DB was the thought that there were things that I can DO to save my M. After a while, in my particular sitch, I saw that there are times when the main thing I can DO is nothing - at least in relation to H. I think there are times like that in each sitch and that this is a quiet time for you. It seems like the main thing you can do is avoid throwing gas on the fire.

It's great that you are doing things like yoga and going to the gym. If you are taking care of yourself in that way, an afternoon or two of staying slumped in the chair is not bad and I think has a different kind of healing property. Make sure you have plans (or at least a strategy for getting out of the house) for those times when H has the boys.

You're doing great. You are strong and it shows.
