Really everyone, I am doing a lot better. I don't have that feeling of despair. I do not feel down. I don't have that ball in my stomach. I'm functioning again.

Yes at times I feel overwelmed. School, work, family...

It could be plenty worse, and I know other folks have it worse. Why everyone is so infatuated with my sitch is beyond me. Maybe it is because I am consistant. Maybe it is the fact that I really can't tolerate the wicked.

Sometimes I see people that are trying to help as being poison.

I still need to focus on goal #1. I would like my wife would initiate communication with me and tell me about her life, and she would be interested in knowing about my life.

Goal #2. I would like my wife would initiate spending time together even if it is for five minutes sitting on the porch, and not saying anything. I would prefer that the wife and our family go to Mass together.

Goal #3 I would like my wife to initiate more affection to me, perhaps show me that she is still interested in me.

Goal #4 I would like my wife to tell me that she believes in us and thinks we can make it and would like to work on the marriage and hold the family together. Even if she does need more time to process through the seperation.
