bob -
I read your post last night, but you had so many wonderful responses that I did not respond. But I woke a few times during the night with you on my mind. So here are a few words from me.
First let me say I admire your honesty. I to live with a man who works a tremendous amount of hours a week to provide for his family. He has two children 7 and 12, I have none. They are here with us every other weekend, and for longer periods like 2 weeks on and off in the summer and holiday vacations. It is very difficult, my situation is different that yours as they do not live with us full time. But none the less, being a parent/step parent is difficult.
As everyone else has said, and you have said yourself, family time is what is important. Couple time is important. We are addicts, you use work and my Paul does, i on the other hand use food, but that is for a differnt post.
Follow your heart, your 2nd post shows where your heart wants to be.
God Bless you and your family. And thank you for all the wonderful work you do here for us so that we can fellowship together.
You are truly appreciated.
