Hi you two! I've been taking a look around the boards and you're just about everywhere.
zig - I know exactly what you mean about the mac spolonking checker - I'm an Apple tech (hence my handle :-). Lesson 1 - always read before you send
Both - to clarify - the "mutual friend" is just that - no code involved. And she did come round last night and boy did I get hit by a ton of 2 x 4's.
I've actually been a complete and utter SOB over the past two years - no excuses. Apparently I used to return home, park the motorcycle, walk in with stooped shoulders, peck the wife on the cheek, ignore others who were there at the time (my only defence - I would have loved some quality time with the W - was never to be - can't use this as any defence with either friend or friend - bummer 'cos that's how I felt - always sharing all the damn time).
W always asked me how work had gone - I never shared (why should I with others present?)
I never asked W how hers had gone - what a REAL bummer - guilty in the first degree.
W apparently stopped wearing her rings end of last year - just after accident when I was at my worst.
Friend was really surprised at what W had done and didn't see any way out of it. She was hurt because she would have expected W to discuss first.
Today - crappy morning but managed to put a false smile on my face and help a few folks out. Got home early and apologised to W for past faults (and they were BIGGIES). Funny but there wasn't any hysterics which is what I was expecting.
Helped W with getting her CV away to people. Got a big thank you for that (after retyping most of it).
W gone out with friend to return some cloths to a store - W asked friend earlier is she wanted to discuss this lot! Lets see if our mutual mediator can make any more sense out of the sitch. Friend has the belief that the W went to the L over a week ago. I've been a very good boy since then - and I didn't know at the time she'd gone.
Can people change? Will W believe me? I have the strongest of feelings that this time at the end of recovery this will happen! With the recovery I've been regaining what I'd lost in the past. I hope to heck it'll stick this time - hoping the thump to the noggin has cleared all the bad cobwebs away. Hoping that my W will believe me.
OH - AND I helped the friend pair her blackberry ear-set to her iPhone (in front of W) Round of applause and laughter from both
