Just journaling.....

W asked at Saturdays karate class, when the Parent-Teacher conference would be. I told her it was today and even though she is off her regular job this week, she is doing leaf blowing for OM's landscape crew.

She keeps up the story that she is working for her new girl friend, but i know it's with OM.

I do not instigate any confrontational subjects, remain neutral and validate when called for.

I have family plans with S-9 for T-Giving day. W has not even brought up any attempt to see S on that day. That ball remains in her court.

My IC appointment seemed to calm my nerves down, or else the AD meds are kicking in after 13 days.

I am overwhelmed with my financial picture and Pray that my commercial property and building sells before spring time.

I am straightening out a minor issue with new company general liability insurance policy. I should know results in a few days, them i can get my company licensed again to do my own work once again.

I ran it very successfully for 24 out of the last 27 years until i fell apart with anxiety since d-day 3 years ago.

W wants a visit with S one of the next 2 days and i will go along with that.

I thought about our conversation about her starting to contribute something towards child support and the way she replied, regarding lets see about visitation seemed like she was blaming me for her lack of contact with our S.

She still misses more opportunities than she shows up for. That's on her, not me.

But, do i point that out to her?

I don't see any good coming out of a conversation like that, except for the opportunity to establish a schedule that she and i agree to and she adheres yo without excuses, like not having enough gas, as was the case this past Saturday.

I could use feedback on that point please.

I hate lame excuses when she can afford to go out that same night.

I am reaching out to some friends to do thongs together too. Unfortunately, none could attend my brothers band playing Saturday night, but at least i tried to get some friends together.

Sooo, i am planning some minor GAL things and have 1 job to try to well. It's a start.to

Do WAW's who seem to be enjoying their party lifestyle have 2nd thoughts?

I am only sharing it here, but i would still like R on our marriage and family, but i will keep on doing the detachment angle till it starts to stick and look for GAL opportunities.

Are there any similar threads with a relapsed Spouse and/or the LBS waiting so long to try the DB techniques that anyone could direct me to?

Thanks,

Ed
