I scored a 97% on my "Get Assertive" course final. My hours at work have returned to 7-3, enabling me to return to my weekly meditation meet-up. Tuesday I go to an industry trade show for work to socialize with vendors and evaluate new equipment. I've been feeling better about myself and less worried about losing my wife.

The past couple of days my wife seems to be more comfortable around me and the house. Leaving or filing for D seems most unlikely. Let the monitoring continue, but I'm staying on my present course (give her space and freedom, keep myself busy) and not changing a thing.

M: A really long time.
Crisis: 5 years.
She's still worth it.

Life is never made unbearable by circumstances, but only by lack of meaning and purpose. -Viktor Frankl
