Thanks LFW. "This is nice" is about as much as I felt about the situation so I feel I'm heading in the right direction. My wife has shared a little more with me over the past couple of days. In general I'm doing my own thing though: whatever housework I feel like doing when I feel like doing it, playing games in my room, I even drove an hour out of town (and an hour back) for lunch on the weekend just for something to do.
Over the past few days I've made inquiries about going back to uni and I am setting up my application. My son's school's P&C group put a notice on Facebook last night asking for members so I've asked about that too. Money is still tight so GAL activities are free or non-existant. I've rehashed my budget in a big way and I can see where I'm overcomitted financially. I feel I have a bit of a roadmap for where I want to go however it's still a work in progress.
