Very glad you and your wife are going to Retroville. I have read great things about it. There is a thread on the Piecing section from Sara that I believe has a lot of questions and answers about it. It's a long thread (I have read on and off). Sara has always been a big proponent on these message boards for attending. I bumped it up so it will be easy to find.
As for your wife- I think I had mentioned earlier, mom's groups or meetup.com. Would she be interested? I know that meetup.com also has groups for "couple's events". Of interest? She is not from Canada originally, correct? Has she any networking with people from her home country? I know that in my area the universities usually have some social groups pertaining to different immigrant groups. I also have noticed that the English as a Second language classes seem to be social events that people enjoy. Would she be interested in any of these? I'm sure that being isolated can certainly bring her mood down.
I know I have mentioned it b4 but I really love the "his needs, her needs" book. It really explains so much on how men and women differ. Planning on reading Men are from Mar and Women are from Venus next.
With your three month separation period before a possible D. Is this a "secret" event or do others know about it. Just wondering if there are people rallying for the two of you....
