Every three years? Yup because I think I know what's causing the main issue. I have a strong feeling that the professional that I went to see (same guy as three years ago) is right. The last time this happened was just about three years ago. And my point? (and his?) - think of winter, little sun (yes I know it's South Africa) and depression. He wrote a little recipe to cope. And you know what? In one ear and out the other
And thank goodness you pointed out the "enough control" bit. There's me rolling onto my back and presenting my stomach for scratching. What a good boy - wanna biscuit? Arggg!
And I don't mind sharing my "dirty washing". Anything that may help someone else!
BTW - I think I've had a (small) epiphany....
The W is doing what she did last time. She's keeping busy. Not drinking busy but just busy. The lass is in full thinking mode. What's H up too?
House-sitting for someone else as the plumbers make a hash of things (arrived late as well). Boy was she p1$$3d! Well this was the shopping afternoon. And no I didn't SMS to bug her. She was quite apologetic and is now figuring out how to find time (in her busy schedule) to do said shopping.
Tomorrow - picking up BIL and niece from airport.
Wednesday - something else.
Well so long as she's giving her L a wide berth it gets my vote!
Thanks for the pointer "elsewhere". Boy-oh-boy - tough questions!!!!
Right thats me off to the kitchen. I feel a pizza coming on for dinner.
((((( warm hugs )))) Well I am close to the cooker
Sooo..... Let me see if I can remember some things from 3 years ago... She made a point of stating she will be home tonight, therefore, you have plans
I don't care where you go or what you do, just get out of the house and FYI... Do not make a point of letting her know where you are going to be... Just "out"
(((((Massive Hugs)))))

You cannot justify with me my friend. Whether you have lots of sun or a little sun, you make the choice to react to circumstances surrounding you, that includes the weather.
If you have depression and it is kicking in, then see your Doc, perhaps he can help you over the hump... If the sun is not shining, turn the lights on brighter... If Winter dragging on is wearing you down, think tropical... Go on youtube and search for videos filled with sunshine and rainbows.
Change your perspective, change your thinking, change your mood
It is all up to you and you alone.

Oh and I'd love to be out and about - 1 problem - it'll be very late. She's a referee for Action Netball on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday and gets back late.
I haven't read much of your sitch yet, but try not to give up on at least LISTENING to all sorts of advice at this stage. It doesn't mean you have to ACT on all of it, but relationship advice-gathering is a little like "church-shopping" -- you're not going to find the perfect one, and you have to be careful you don't just go somewhere where everyone blows smoke up your kilt and tells you what you want to hear, kwim?
I read your thread on "that other place," and I have to say, I agree with what most of them are trying to tell you (at least about the "always good to see a lawyer to better understand your rights, and to protect yourself" thing).
The good news is, I've known Serenity a long time, and she ain't no kilt-smoke-blower!
I'll try to catch up with your backstory when I can.
