Changes I've made - Zero contact with W except for "business" activities. No pursuing, no R talk. - Regular workouts (lifting 3 days a week) - Wardrobe updates - Two new pairs of glasses, one of which has received multiple compliments, including from unknown women - New scent - Reigniting friendships - Grief recovery support class - GAL: Going to games with friends, planetarium, hiking, Thursday night agreement with good friend to meet up after my grief class - Firing up house projects - Re-visiting "no more mr nice guy". I do think I grew in that area before and during my current R with W (after D#1). Need to grow more outside of that R, especially at work. - No alcohol for the time being, until I've at least emotionally recovered. No set timeline, but as a reference, at least another 2-3 months.
Changes I want to make - As I recover emotionally and I'm less of a disaster, put more focus back into my children when I have them - Set boundaries with my mom, and eventually move off of our street (no timeline right now - lots of house work and $$$ needed to do so) - Add cardio workouts on days I don't lift (would like to workout 6 days a week) - Improve diet (cut out sugar most days of the week, more protein/veggies than carbs). Replace dessert with protein shake - Continue updating wardrobe - Make the house "mine". Replacing some things she took. Framing and hanging concert posters I've had in my closet. Rearranging some furniture. - Update beard style. Color? new trim style? - Keep lifting and start growing. - Continue healthy grieving process - No or severely limited contact with in-laws for the remainder of DB process - No more binge drinking - Get a vasectomy
