[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm an Ironman widow.  Luckily spouse does a lot of training early in am, late at night, days when doesn't go into the office, etc.  But it's still a lot, so I feel ya.[/quote]

The funny thing is, I'm not a needy woman. Normally I don't care. And usually my DD does move herself as she gets a storage unit in the state she goes to college in. This time, though, she's graduating and you don't miss your DD's graduation. And I need to help her pack all her stuff into the truck since she's moving back to our state - she can't do it alone as it's too much work. She'll drive her car and I'll drive the truck back on Tues of next week.

All I'm asking is a moratorium for the 6 days I'm gone. He can probably sneak in a ride for a couple hours some of those days, but not his normal length. Both boys are dealing with serious testing/finals this week into early next week and their stress level is high. My youngest, especially, is dealing with finals/graduation/off to college and is feeling it in a serious way. My eldest's son's college professor, friend, and mentor, hung himself at the beginning of the semester so it's been a tough semester for him all around. Both boys need their father this week. He can't seem to see that. He just had a meltdown because he wanted to go do a ride tonight with a group and I told him I'd rather him not, as both boys are having a tough day. It was like watching a child: "You don't let me go out with my friends". Are you kidding? He's been doing that ride for weeks and I've been saying "have a great time"

I flat-out told him if he can't pack it up for five days for the sake of his kids, then he needs to take a serious look in the mirror and check himself. I'm not his keeper, he can do what he wants, however this is very disturbing.[/quote]
