Doc, It's hard to believe it's been a year since I've talked to you. It sounds like you're taking much better care of yourself.
My W has agreed to accept my parent's invitation and go on a trip to stay with my family. I'm thinking the way to get thru this is to limit the amount of time we spend there--about three days, or more if it's going well. Seven hundred miles in a car with my W may have some difficult moments, but flying is too expensive.
My W's decision to limit the amount of beer in the home, has helped her to cut down on smoking. I no longer buy beer for the house. She buys her own, which creates a step for her , instead of having it appear weekly. She still spends too much time in front of the television and computer, but I give her space, to work it out on her own. I sometimes get impatient with her, but for the most part, am able to enjoy our time together.
