My IC had me write out what I wanted in a marriage. Many things on the list were things my H had as far as similar interests & hobbies, but as far a life...not so much. I like to take the kids and go exploring after work & dinner, hang out with friends. H had kind of retreated into a work, come home, eat, lay infront of the TV kind of guy. Looking at things objectively, I saw that if that is truly who he is and he is content that way, that is not who I want to spend my life with. Now that he is home...we rarely watch TV. Last night worked 12 hours, so I took the kids outside to play. He read in bed. But each night I'm surprised when he chooses to head out on an adventure with us.

Ah, sarcasm. I'm still a fan, but today it is more self deprecating that anything. \

So glad to hear you have your groove back! One thing that I have always felt has helped me in life, if my ability to laugh. I was gone in the first few months after DB, but it carried me through.
