I left work a little early today so I could repair my mental attitude this afternoon (I have an awesome boss...he knows my situation and is extremely supportive). My W was already home when I arrived. So I followed my DB coach's suggestion and gave my W a very quick apology for the last few days. She was cool with it. I then proceeded to the gym for what my DB coach termed as "self care."
After I picked up the kids from school, I took them next door to play with the neighbor's kids. I have very nice neighbors and I took this as an opportunity to be social for myself as well. I would say that my W was distant from me and the kids this evening...not cold but distant.
I'm feeling alot better tonight than I did for most of the day. The DB coach and my friends really helped me out today. I'm lucky to have a strong support system. Everyone tells me that I'll be just fine no matter what happens. They also say that I'll always be a part of my kids lives...so don't let what my W may be doing concern me.
