I'm glad work is going well. And if its the right kind if weight gain I imagine that feels good.
2 weeks without the kids has to be rough, so I hope you're doing OK and I bet you're looking forward to seeing them next week.
You said you take what is offered but don't initiate contact. Any idea what's stopping you? For me that sort of thing is usually a fear of failure/rejection.
Have a good weekend
