I talked to one of the administrators at the DB center and she said they will need at least your first name and last initial, or email address to allow you to use one of my sessions. Not sure how we'll work that out, though. Maybe we need the moderator's help here.

UPDATE 6pm

I need to vent.

Picked up our son from daycare and first thing noticed he had the sniffles. I asked the provider if our son had a jacket/coat today (mom dropped him off this morning), the provider said no. I was, like, cool.

A few minutes ago my wife comes by the house to pick up our son. She asks if he has his jacket, and I said no. She said she sent one with our son this morning. Then I said I had asked the provider if he had a jacket, and she said no. Guess what my wife says next? "No, you didn't." I then said, "Are you kidding me? It was cold when I walked in to pick him up, and I saw him sniffling -- the first thing I asked for was for his jacket/coat."

Arrrrgghhhh!

On the plus side, my manager called me a superstar today for turning over part 1 of 5 of this crazy urgent curriculum project in under 2 hours!

Well you pushed back on the jacket issue, so that is good. You do need to keep standing up for yourself, just don't let her ruffle your feathers so much.

Keep doing the best job you can at work, pour your energy into it. You have already increased your "value".

Now that you have a job, what is the next thing you are going to work on to make yourself a better man?

That's a really good idea -

I'll be watching for an email from each of you.

I admit that I let my feelings and hurt get the better of me some moments. It's getting better, though...not great, just better. I miss my wife, E________, so much.

Besides all the 180s and GAL I've been incrementally doing since the separation occurred, there are a couple of things I'm trying to ramp up in terms of self-improvement. I've already been working out, but living alone it's really easy to slack dietary and physically, so I have kept with a regiment to keep fit and bring back my good old swimmer-bod muscle tone.

The other thing I just started doing about 4 days ago has been an abstinence from masturbation. It's something the porn addiction support group say will help in the long term. I think being tired out from work has been helping. smile

BTW, thanks for checking in, Mike! How are you faring?

Oh I'm doing fine, thanks. smile

Have you been following karma's thread? You guys have a lot in common in terms of personality I think.
