I would first like to apologize for not being here for some of you. I know some of you are going through tuff times right now and I haven't been a very good friend, I'll try to post more.

journaling: when W called Saturday I asked if she was going to stop by so the kids could give her a present and sing happy birthday to her, she said she had forgot all about her birthday (I don't see how, she's been telling me about if for the last 2 weeks)

She had D9 last night took her to hockey game, I took the other three to church this morning and then W and D9 walk in and sat with us, how embarrassing I immediately started thing of lighting striking her. She even went to communion, I guess she confessed her sins and now everything is alright (we're still married in the eyes of the church) - Everyone who sees me and the kids every Sunday, they know my situation, how can she just come in like that in front of everyone.

W took kids to D9 basketball game after church I put out the cakes, card and present. Had everything set up for her and the kids to celebrate her birthday and close to the time I knew she would be back with the kids I left to run to the hardware store. When I came back the kids were finishing up their cake. I had a piece with some coffee, W stayed for a couple of minutes and then she was gone.

Again, I will try to post more, you guys/gals have been so kind to post your thoughts for me and I haven't reciprocated

Thank you for checking in on me.
