As you have undoubtably heard this is a marathon and not a sprint, a fact I believe not lost on you. I like your approach, your focus on you and kids, and your filling up that free time. Funny I remember never have much free time before BD, but after, egads there is a lot - well for a while.
It was really hard to maintain my composure when he said that. I laughed so hard. That really confused him. I wanted to really let him have it. But I figured what good is that going to do. All we will do is end discussing things that he clearly doesn’t care about. I just wanted to get him out of the bed and out of the room. So I remained firm and with an attitude he left. He then sent me a text message from the other room that said “this is so hard”. I replied “you will be fine, good night.”
