Kaffe, when you write "make sense?", you almost sound like 25! And that's a compliment.
Anyway, last night I responded to my wife's email per Kaffe's suggestion. I think my initial thoughts as well as the final message were pretty on par, i.e. not much negative emotions tied to them.
If she doesn't give me a reply, I will bring it up again in a week or two through email. If she refuses or doesn't respond again, I will begin the ex parte process. Boooo...
Today I have to admit that I'm emotionally drained. This past week as part of our new Bible class assignment, we made it a point to pray for people (family, friends, "enemies) who are important in our lives. I've been doing this for the past year or so, but having dedicated prayers, say, for my wife has taken a lot out of me. I love her, yet it's so hard nowadays, you know what I mean?
