Mini update Last night W was called into a last minute work obligation. She sought out my opinion on how / who to manage the kids til I got home, called me to vent about it, checked in on her way there and called on her way home. "Checked in" at her own free will, no expectation of mine.
Addition to the other night convo regarding her IC. Her IC is in the process of joining our insurance network, so as of now, we're paying out of pocket rate. Yikes. Anywho, W expressed a concern about that, and so my response (as I've read here somewhere), "if it was cancer, we'd pay for the treatment to get you better." She really liked that.
So anwyays, last night she finally made it home. She wanted to journal (Yay!), and I elected to read. Funny thing is I was reading the How to Save Your Marriage book underneath, another book. Had to hide it at one point as she walked in to where I was reading. Lol. Anyways, I dont' totally agree with all of it, but I will say that a lot of makes sense for me / her. My fear / shame tendencies and her anxiety dynamic, as well as, W being my "meaning in life," and due to the sich, feeling lost. Nice validation and stuff for me to work on for me. 8)
