Thanks rabbit, but we hav'nt got the showers in yet. I'll have to settle with washing my face and hands. The house isn't at a stage where I can live in it yet, that's why I'm staying with my sister. Sleep, that sounds good. I've only had about 6 hours over the last 3 nights and I normally get 8 or 9 hours a night. Just can't seem to get tired. I'm supposed to drop our son off on Saturday, but I might see if I can get my mum to drop him off. Don't know what excuse I'm gonna use yet. I've already set my mind at not being needy.
Today was a really bad day and I've been depressed today. My wife called me twice to speak to me about our son. He was misbehaving at school today and was being naughty before school. She pretty much blamed me as my parents tend to spoil him, and he doesn't appreciate what he already has. She said that material things shouldn't matter in life. What matters is the people that you love, the time you spend with them and what they mean to you. Bit ironic considering she asked me to leave !
Anyway, I told her I agreed, but he is only 6 and he might have troubles seeing that considering what he has been through over the last few months (loosing his grandfather and his father not being home) and we need to find a way to make sure he understand what is important in life.
He was giving her a hard time this morning about something he wanted to take to school. Something that my mum gave him. I spoke to him and told him it was to stay at home. I then apologised to my wife and told her that I would speak to my mum about spoiling our son. Which I did.
I spoke to a family member today, and he told me that she said there were moments on Saturday night and that we struggled to keep conversations going. Which we did have troubles with, but I tried my best. I don't know how she can expect it to be completely normal considering we've been living seperately for 4 weeks without discussing anything.
When we do talk, which is only when we have to, she seems angry at me all the time. I know I hav'nt worked as hard as I should of with our marriage before, but i can't change the past. I can only try to do my best plus some if she gives me another chance.
