We went to gym on Saturday and she left one empty machine between us (I was already on one when she walked up). Stupid mind game but for whatever reason I was steaming. Thankfully I didn't say anything about it the rest of the day but my body was sore as hell Sunday because I went a little crazy with workout crazy . She could tell I was upset but at least I didn't start a fight, she obviously didn't say anything about it.

Yesterday morning she had coffee with a friend before church and her friend ambushed her and really laid into her. I saw wife at church and could tell she was upset. I asked a couple little questions and she started talking, I just listened and didn't give any opinions and only said encouraging things for her. Felt bad for her. I was glad that she actually talked to me about it rather then say nothing was wrong. I think that's progress???

Yesterday (Sunday) she had to work until 7:30 so kids wanted to make special dinner. I made up chicken parmigiana, a dessert and kids put together a skit to act like we were an Italian restaurant. She ends up coming home late due to case running over but she seemed to like it. She thanked us, kids mostly. I'm probably a little over sensitive but would have been nice for her to show a little more appreciation because I busted my ass yesterday. Oh well, got over it and didn't affect night, just posting how I felt.

The kids and I are having a great time together and hopefully she's seeing some changes in my behavior. Some are coming pretty natural and others I have to really work at. It's still mind blowing that we don't talk about anything except kids and small talk about her work. Nothing about M and she hasn't asked anything about my life in weeks.


Personality is who the world sees, character is who you are

Turn your trials into your testimonies

Don't believe everything you think

Expectations are resentments waiting to happen
