In the UK - need help (pt7)

[Huddy]

Hi NDY

This is the paradox. So, when I started doing LRT, I spent more time out of the living room, playing with the kids, reading books etc. and that just made W even more annoyed. W made pointed remarks about how I was now spending more time with the kids, why was I doing weights etc. and why didn't I do that before (I did, but I spend even more time with them as I don't know when you're going away).

I now dress the kids after bathtime (W used to like doing that, but hasn't done so since BD), so imagine my amazement when W spews at me for spending too much time on bathtime! I put the laptop on whilst they are getting dry and let them watch kids shows on youtube so we can have quality time together.

I just can't win. When I went to the hotel in week 4 (that now seems like a distant memory), I got spewed at because she didn't know what I'd been doing and just last week, she spewed because I spent a day at the library, but she didn't want me to be at home!

That's my problem. If I'm needy, I'm wrong. If I do LRT/GAL, I'm wrong.
