Thanks Gordie.

Despite this, it was a good evening overall. My wife cooked a fantastic dinner. Steaks (I grilled them) with mushrooms, shrimp, Brussels sprouts, and heart shaped pasta with butter and cheese. I brought home dessert. Kids were in good spirits. We all had a good time. Felt like normal.

At the end of the night I said, "I'm going to watch some TV in the living room if you want to join me." She did. We talked for a bit and then watched an episode of Curb Your Enthusiasm (which is always good for a laugh) before going to bed. We haven't done that in months.

Every day I get a little better at letting go of what my life used to be like and just enjoying what it is now. Last night was hard though, but I kept a smile on my face and a spring in my step.
