your wife sounds like she is trying to figure things out. and it is so great because it's on her own time. so much better than being part of the walking dead don't you think (which btw is awesome.. i'm almost caught up)? Nice...then you haven't seen all the suprises yet. she has to be ok with herself before she's ok as a we.

I agree banana. There may never be a "we". For now, I'll support her journey without getting in her way, and walk mine for now. We'll see. Hoping same for you

i think it's so great that she's reached out to you regarding the book. i think if she didn't care about connecting w/ you.. she wouldn't bother asking you to read it. if my H would consider reading one self book i would be over the moon! so much better to doing something.. anything!

I hear you....she professed to hate all self help books...and esp MC's early in the bomb days. I remember leaving her The Five Love Languages. Her reaction was as if I gave her a book filled with baby porn! Maybe your H is just not at that point yet? You still have Rutro-ville to go....maybe then? Hope so B.

as your wife tries to rebuild herself, i pray that her journey leads back to you and your family because you are an AMAZING man. you have managed to walk this path w/ grace, empathy and an extraordinary amount of patience. well done eggie!

Thanks banana bread. I never could see this happening...so I guess the fact that I can't imagine a R doesn't mean it won't happen, huh?

in the meantime, what are you going to continue doing for yourself?


Yoga, reading, friends, sons & gf's, book deal I'm in (need to pick up my part of it again - will tell you about it later), guitar, self evaluation, laugh with you and others, tons of movies, spiritual quest, my involvement in Venus project and Zeitgeist movement (more on that later),all things zombie, home projects (remodeling bathroom right now). How's that for starters?

What about you for yourself besides planting large male socks in your bed, and zombies?
