Just reading your issue with dinner. ... stop calling her and pursuing asking when .. ETA ... all that .. just cook, if she makes it home and eats great .. if not pack that stuff up in the fridge and let her help herself if she is hungry. that would be a good 180 for you IMHO I know its hard ... I cooked for the family for years with her gone it removed that issue, I made alot of those types of mistakes early on and wished I would have found this place, the books, and all the advice 7 months ago I might be much further along than where I am now, I had windows to pull some strong positives but did not have the tool box ... you do ... USE IT
