Pardon me if you have explained this already but why is your neighbor playing therapist with you and your W?
If you can't afford the hobbies you used to do then why not find some new free/lower cost hobbies?
Nothing to apologize for. Our neighbor is a friend we've known for the last few years, back when things were ok. She also has kids our kids ages, is our babysitter, etc. It just happened that she has a degree in psychology and experience as a counselor and agreed to " translate " for us. We really do/are speaking to completely different languages. Even just today we needed that independant 3rd party to say , " No , he actually said this, she actually said that"
As far as any " new" hobbies go. Just dont really see it happening. What can I say , I know what interests me and what doesnt. I'd like to eventually start geocaching, but even that takes gas to drive to the various spots and thats extras gas money I cant spare right now.
I'll have plenty to do over the next couple months between new place fixing up and school so............
