I'm just now catching up on your thread, as I've been battling my own demons this past week.
First, let me say that you sound like a wonderful Dad. To go from the Dad you say you were, loving but career consumed, to the Dad you are now is nothing short of amazing. The majority of men I know could't do it with half the heart you have.
Second, I think we all deserve a good, wing-ding of a pity party now and then, just to relieve the pressure. Just remember, if the kids are home, drink Virgin Marys.
Third, I'm sure you've come out the other side by this time, and are on the road to recovery, or at least as much as is possible at this time for us LBS's. I just want you to know how much I appreciate your POV, your emotions, your thoughts.
This DB'ng is hard stuff. I believe every now and again we need a little break to be a real, feeling, raging, crying, cussing, freakin' out human being. Just do it where your W can't see you.
