I have a question about detaching? If I was always gone coaching and playing golf then detaching would be more of the same. What I am thinking about doing is taking my son and spending more time with him playing golf and doing other activities. We had homemade ice cream and peanuts tonight at her parents house while she went out to eat with her girlfriends. Her mother is very religious and the most supportive person you will ever meet. She has told me to just love her and pray about it. However, I know that my wife has changed and has distanced herself from all of us more and more. It’s really sad when we get home tonight and she doesn’t leave the spare bed to love the boys goodnight or speak to them. I know they are 18 and 13 but it is sad and I fear it will only get worse.

I guess this is going to be the longest year of my life because I am dedicated to sticking this out. I am praying and hoping this is discovered at work. It probably will not because this stuff happens all the time. They spend a lot of time together and people are talking but it will be chalked up to just rumors. All of this going on and my son is in her class and her AP’s daughter is in the class as well.

I’m going to continue to pray and detach.
