Piecing is almost harder than before #2...

[Harrier]

Actually, I read that before. (I wanted to see who I was dealing with ;-) )

I'm pretty sure that I know more than my wife ever wanted me to know or find out about - stuff that she didn't get to censor because she didn't know I was reading it. That is why I'm confident on some of my statements about the EA.

I like this.

"I trust my wife because of all the days we pieced together. Not from the time prior to it, if that makes sense. I trust my wife, because she showed me she was worth it."

That makes complete sense to me.

I so wanted to bring up my anxiety with my W the last few days, but I didn't and I was able to work through it on my own. I'm feeling much better today and more positive.

My W had a busy couple days with early morning meetings and working late last night. That also meant I didn't get to spend the time with her I wanted and I took the lion share of kid duty. But I was okay because I wanted to give her that.
The thing that bothered me was that my W said that she was worthless with helping out. I think it was her way of dealing with the guilt of feeling like she wasn't keeping up. (This is something that has been an issue. I was doing too much - she felt guilty and I felt resentment.)

I wrote her a email that said I know her week was busy and I know my part of the deal when that happens. When my time comes to lean on her she will be there and I said if things get too much I will let her know because I don't want to screw up our progress. And I like spending time with my boys.
I also said that i know she was kidding but she is far from worthless. I said she was a great mom, great wife/partner and great friend and considering where we were that is more than I can ask for.
