I just want to clarify something here, my husband works out of town, ( If anyone is from Alberta, they know about camp life and the oilsands), which means he isn't home for extended periods of time. I am alone at home with the kids 90% of the time as well as work, etc. So, technically, he isn't at home. We communicate via texts and phone calls, have been that way for years...other then when he had days off and he would come home. This year with this OW, he spent some of his days off with her...thereby even reducing the time either I or our family spent with him. I haven't told him I am doing dark/dim..whatever it is...I have reduced the texting and calling to him to virtually nil these past few days. I am trying to do things to keep myself occupied, cleaning house, laundry etc.
