I was previously on this board years ago for SSM. Got a lot of advice and helped me deal with it, plus it helped me actually become a bit more realistic and "Mid-D" and my wife became a bit better as well. I am really hoping to get more great advice now.

Background: Things were really good for several years, then 2.5 years ago I took a new job and we moved from Milwaukee area to Western Wisconsin. We had previously lived here and wife had close friends here, so she was supportive of move. Problem was, I was oversold on job and walked into he** with the owner. VERY stressful time for me, with long days and weekends, and when I was there, I really wasn't present for either her or our kids.
