Piecing is almost harder than before...

[XYZ]

On a side note...W always told me that things had been bad for a year when the bomb came. I didn't believe that. I remembered a few fights over a few months, but that's it. Just yesterday, I decided to look back over some old emails. Well, guess what? She's right I could see where things starting getting bad at least a year before the bomb - and probably before that. Guess her sense of that was better than mine.

So, it seems that my timeline (so far) is something like this:
* Started getting bad for 12 months before the bomb
* Separation about a month after bomb
* Back home 11 days later, W agrees to try again
* First 2 months, good, but slow and a little tentative
* In the last 6 weeks, it really feels more genuine to me (been home 3.25 months in total)

So I dunno, feels to me like a few more months. If that's right (and God only knows if it is), I'm on the home stretch. I know that's risky thinking, but I have to do it to keep on going. Who wants to quite a marathon when they're already over half way done? Not me.
