Good night last night again, after work, she went to the gym, and I had the boys. She called to see if we wanted chineese, so we did.

She worked yesterday, and then had a hard workout and was complaining about her back. When we turned in, I asked if she wanted me to rub it and she said no, she wanted to fall asleep in 10 seconds or less, she then said would I like it if she rubbed my heel. I told her to never touch my heel, a quick giggle and to sleep we went.

This morning she was getting ready, and I was leaving, so I came in told her to have a great day, kissed her on the back of the shoulder (she was sitting down with a towel wrapped around her)and she turned around and said for me to have one too as I was walking away.

Slow and steady,

Burt

Just marking down progress...

Last night, wife came home from ladies night golf around 10. Kids were getting ready for bed and s9 and I were throwing a tennis ball back and forth and while I was walking away from that, my wife picked it up and hit me in the back, then blamed s9, I said hey now, who was that? Been a while for her to play in some fun and games.

Wife's stomach was hurting after bourbon and golf, so we went to bed. This morning she was getting up, and I looked over at her, and she gave me the biggest smile.

Slow and steady.

Small steps...

Had a good night, had to get up early to go to the city for some meetings, kicked ass in 3 of the 4. So good day. This morning before I left, wife was up and I said good bye and gave her a hug. She told me, "you smell good". I said, "thanks" and hit the road.

A dash of cologne to change things up...

The road looks long, but it does look brighter than the alternatives.

Good news, bad news...Wife invited me to play golf with her, and another couple on Monday. We have a party last night and the two of us were standing with about 3 other couples and she was talking about playing golf on Monday and then told everyone she and the other woman were trying to figure out a way to not be in the same cart as their husbands. Just a joke (maybe), but still stung.

She was not in the greatest mood this morning, alarm went off and for the first time in quite a while I scooted over and gave her a little bit of a massage. When the alarm went off a second time, she just got up, said good morning and went down stairs. No thank you or any response at all.

Maybe these are tests to see if I fall back into that needy, pouty guy.

I say you get with the other husband, and pair up for a cart, on your own. Replete with beer, cigars and your own beer wench.

Semi-serious.

It is a scramble, so I will have to see about the rules, but if it is a 4 person scramble then I will definitely set it up that way.

Having a great weekend, she just went to the pool, she invited me, but I told her I will meet up with her later. ML this morning, really showing my appreciation by laying on the acts of love.

Looks to be too hot for golf tomorrow, so will think of something else to do.

One day at a time, consious of every move, until it becomes me.

Played golf with the boys, came home and made fish tacos. Good night after that, although I went to bed early, holiday weekend gets tougher as you get older.

She seemed down this morning, asked her what's wrong as I kissed her good bye, she said nothing. She does have a job she is starting today, probably thinking about that.

She is going to play golf this evening with the ladies.

Continuing to be the best husband/father/man I can be (not necessarily in that order). But the roller coaster is full of dips.

This morning, I asked if she had looked into an MC for our communication gaps, she said no, I asked if she would like me to set it up, she said no. I said I thought that you said you wanted to do that with me. She said she does not remember that, and that she just wants to see her IC alone for now.

I left it alone, taking solice in the fact she left it open for me to see her IC later with her.
