Wife is in Canada to help her daughter through a rough divorce. I have pink eye I need to resolve before I leave for Canada to join my wife. And my mom may be dying. I HAVE to do the Canada trip to bring my wife home as planned. So I'm a bit freaked out. If Adulting were easy, more adults would be doing it.

The good part is where my wife is active and engaged with her daughter and our grandchildren. I can hear it when we talk, compared to how she is at home alone with just our pets until I get home from work. They are creating good memories together. We just can't sustain the situation like this, but we can sort out how to improve things going forward.
Silver lining to the current dark clouds. I so look forward to being there with her this Sunday! If I will have to turn around and leave my wife behind to join my sister thousands of miles away... we'll cross that as we get there.
Getting old sucks. Beats the alternative... in most cases.
