Neil,

Ok.....everyone knows Mondays bite
Mondays where you hand your kids off are even worse
..........
Today is Tuesday!

Live today for today

My W said all the time the kids were not a reason to stay together. I would imagine the reason your W is pressing with the co-parenting books now is that she isn't happy. She isn't happy with the way the kids are adjusting and figures the co-parenting will "fix" that. Part of the reason she isn't happy is because of the good time the four of you had as a family and realizes that it felt good. She may even be pulling back a little bit because of that.

I doubt even the best co-parenting will make her happy about the sitch. One good thing you found out yesterday is your W is having just as hard a time with this as you are......

Give her the loving space she needs....you have been doing a great job with that. Yesterday wasn't much of a backslide...though I don't know how much of an R talk you got into.

Today is a new day......make it a good one

PS: After the bomb my W wen out and got a tattoo (I saw you mentioned this in one of the other threads)
