I scheduled my meeting with the sailing center and there's no way my wife is coming along because she's got an appointment. It will be just me this time. If she's interested in taking this up with me, she will have to voice to me her desire for it. Don't really think she will.
I talked with my wife today. I was just checking in, seeing how things were going. Not well. Bunch of crap we all deal with. One of those days when nothing seems to be going right. Cancelled appointments and wasted time and gas. Shuttling kids. Prepping meals. I tried to show myself as supportive and understanding as I could. Validated her frustration. Listened. I'm always at a loss as to what I should say.
Texted her a pic of where I was today, asking her if she recognized where we were and if would be interested in coming out here for a vacation sometime. She replied that she recognized where I was. No response to the question.
Computer was giving her fits and I tried to come up with possible fixes over the phone. Problem is when I am out of town like this, EVERYTHING falls in her lap to take care of.
My last communication with her was via text for her to read at her leisure instead of just adding to the pressure with another phone call. She always avoids talking to me unless she absolutely must anyways. I told her I was sorry her day wasn't going well and that I wasn't home to help with the kids and all of the other things she's dealing with. I told her I wished I could be there for her instead of being stuck in a hotel clear across the country.
