Sandi: Yes, you do a very good job at explaining things. I fully understand what you mean. You have a gift.

Antlers and Coach: You guys crack me up! Keep it coming.

GIMA: I have a feeling we are going to "pick each other up by the bootstraps" each and everytime we're emotionally drained. Thank you for your support.

Well, today was definitely a rollercoaster ride. The morning was horrible, but I actually had a pretty nice evening. My W took the kids to dinner with her parents. I was not invited, but I didn't care b/c I really needed some quiet time. As my W and kids were getting ready to go, my W invited me to this dinner. I had already started to cook my own dinner, so I politely said no thanks. I don't understand my W...this is the second time she's done this to me where I'm not initially invited to a family event just to be invited in the last minute. Does she feel guilty or is she simply confused? Her side of the family loves me to death.

After dinner, I went to the gym for a quick workout (lost 28 pounds and counting since the bomb). Thereafter, I went to the mall to pickup some new jeans. When I came home, the kids came rushing to the door to greet me...they wouldn't go to bed until I came home. Priceless!

Goodnight every one.
