I'm most comfortable here and hopefully that's not a case of me ignoring the elephant in the room. I don't think it is.
Is she happier when I don't revolve around her?
Yes. The answer is most certainly yes.
Although I realized all too much tonight how hard it is for me. Sometimes I do well at it and other times my habits want to take over. Tonight was the perfect example. We were both working late. I came down to tell her I was going to take off to go work out. I asked her if she was hungry partially out of habit but expecting her to say no she pick up something later. Well she wanted for us to go get a pizza. I didn't want to change my plans for her so I went and worked out but told her I'd do a quick workout and come back. So when working out I was overly aware of the time and was really realizing how my every fiber wanted to go back and accommodate. yeck.
So I'm actually not very good at it at all. This might be (is) something to work on.
So we ended up going to dinner and she stayed around pretty late. More and more of that lately. But perhaps I should not be available all the time. Tough for me to do though. I don't really have any close friends to hang out with in this small town.
What am I doing other than work? Working out. I'll be testing for a 4th degree in kung fu in about 10 days. So I workout twice a day and once I add in my fast paced work schedule and then taking care of the household my day is done. In a few weeks I can maybe alter that schedule but right now I really can't.
