Everything status quo. Been thinking a lot about the discussion here regarding W working hard, etc. Just sent the following TM to W:
"I want to thank you for all your work lately. I can certainly tell how hard you're working at feeling better about you and us. I'm sure it's not easy and I'm so glad you're so strong. ily"
No expectations regarding a reply, but it'll be interesting to see...

XYZ - It will be interesting for sure. Just don't expect anything. I know hard not to, but if you truly want to thank her then then just getting the message to her will be your reward.
As for me. Last night was a bit of a struggle. W has Mondays off, basically the whole day to herself. So when the kids and I get home she spends a good part of the night isolating herself. First she eats away from us, then second she reads and listens to her iPod, disappears into the bathroom for a good amount of time to try on some different make up. Oh man I was started to getting chapped. I slowed things down and worked through it and she never saw anything.
After she puts our oldest to bed she comes and spends some time with me talking. Then she gets up to do a few things and says she's going to bed. She kinda hesitated then came over to me as i was sitting on the couch with my arm on the arm rest.
She then grabs my hand, gives it a light squeeze and looks into my else. She thanks me again for everything and said she feels things are starting to get good again. I pull her on the couch and we make passionate love - okay kidding about that. I mumbled something and she went off to bed.
Then while sleeping she was really close to me most of the night, but not quite snuggling.
P.S. time to start a new thread, eh?
