Day 6 of my goal of "no discussions devolving into an argument or fight."

My wife has been pretty nice in my short time around her. I've noticed she hasn't worn her wedding ring for several days now. I try not to read anything into that. She has worn it off an on for several months now because we both started dieting and losing a lot of weight over the past year and I know her ring kept sliding off her finger all the time. She could be getting it resized for all I know, or she could be done with the marriage for all I know. Who knows?

Who here hates Facebook? Like I said earlier, I've done a pretty good job detaching but in "public," we are still very much married. I'm in a job where airing dirty laundry publicly wouldn't be a great thing. And that includes throwing up red flags across the world of Facebook. But of course it's tough to COMPLETELY detach when your spouse posts stuff on Facebook that you try your very best not to read into. Nothing crazy or anything that would imply that we're having problems or she's doing something inappropriate with someone else. But little "updates" that give mixed signals. Anyway, that's my social media rant of the day.

Also, is it a good sign if she's sending me pictures of our kids before I go to bed with the caption that says "goodnight daddy!"? I will give each of us credit so far. Neither of us have used the kids as a tool to get to the other. I suppose that's a great silver lining considering some of the horror stories we hear of divorcing/separating parents using their kids against their spouse.
