Really need to get home Afghanistan Thanksgiving was alright….not the same as being home though – sure miss the family. Ironically, my wife & children had T-giving with the Catholic Priest who married us ( we became close friends & he is the Godfather to both boys). At least I should be home for Christmas. I call home often to speak with the kids. I don’t call my wife’s cell # …but she picks up the home phone sometimes. Our conversations are pretty brief, mostly business etc. I make it a point not to say Love or talk about the R, her IC, the future etc. Our last conversation about the R was when she told me about 2 weeks ago that she spoke with a lawyer for advice ( I’m sure it was prompted by her pro-divorce IC). She cried, sent an emotional email & said that she loved me. Since then…all business. Question: Should I invite her to any of my GAL activities that I have planned ( Yoga or skiing/snowboarding)?... or is this just for me. I heard that she is planning a small welcome home party for me- Is this an olive branch, or do you think that she simply thinks that we can get divorced & then hang out n be best buddies like when we were in college? For the time being, she will stay in our home (seperate rooms)… She did mention the possibility of getting an apt close to our home so she could help with the kids… but financially, I don’t think that I can handle the extra expense, especially since I took a six figure pay cut when the economy tanked…In case you don’t know my sitch, I’m in the guard/reserves- so the military is just my pt job.
