Wayward Wife, my addiction, advice needed

[trumpet]

Mowgli,

Thanks again for the post. Appreciated the viewpoint. I think my loneliness is probably due to withdrawls from the addiction, or maybe magnified because of the addiction. I always had something to fall back on to make me feel 'loved', although it wasn't such a great friend it always said it was. Left me hollow inside.

I did A LOT of DB/180 reading today. It's been really slow at work, so more time to think about my next move(s). Definitely excited about getting a new phone tomorrow, and read up on my tendonitis in my calves/achilles. Hope to be pain free next week so I can get back to running.

Also, tl2 is totally right - it's time for trumpet to grow up. I've always used video games - phone/computer mostly, to escape, and stayed late at work to escape. My wife was always mad I made a choice of work over her and family. I'll be curtailing my extra time at work for a while, and setting boundaries with clients so they know I can't stay late.

I felt great reading and working out - and then fell off the wagon thinking it was time to get working on the marriage. My wife might just be starting to dance. I'll let her do that solo while I dance to my own tune for a while. She'll find me on the dancefloor if she wants to dance together.

Better to sit on the park bench, holding the bread in your hand, waiting to feed our little winged friends, than to run into the flock and scare them away.
