Crimson, ha ha. No really though I am not pompous. I'm ready for the tesk. i need to change a lot of things for myself! I am just not as energetic, and more importantly not as productive as I used to be. Work and my ailing business is consuming me, and now my family falling apart is the nail in the coffin if I don't act fast.

i see how it is all related. If I had more energy and maybe worked out, I would have more energy to work on things around the house, our house would look nice, W would be happy and proud of the house, I would have more energy to do things when they need to be done like taking out the trash (just one example but you know there are others). Productivity would increase even in my business and so most likely profits would be up, and then morale, self esteem, confidence (I know those are not just from business but for me no doubt success increases these things). More money, or enough money, means more vacationing and more fun with D (and maybe W in the future?).

Thank you for taking interest in my sitch. I have several people who have taken more interest in my sitch than in other people. When I click on certain people and look at their posts, it seems they are posting to me more than anyone else.

Not sure if thats always a good thing =) As you said it is a lot of 2x4's.

But, I like to think also that a lot of people think I can succeed in my mission. My marriage, although I see now that it was less than perfect or I wouldn't be sitting here, still did not have anywhere near the disfunction of some of the people i see on this forum.

Some have multiple affairs, from both partners, alcoholism, already with a blended family of kids meaning each partner had a previous marriage, and an mlc all bundled into one.

I hope my case is easier to overcome. Nothing is for sure as you all say, but perhaps I can be lucky and keep my family together.

It is 11:30pm and D3 just climbed out of bed and is running around the house babbling incoherently. She may be still sleeping =).. My wife is "out" so I need to go take care of this. God I love that child! I will probably watch and episode of Dora the Explorer with her so she can fall asleep again.

Good night folks!
