Actually I do SMART recovery meetings. So I get a great deal of support and help from the group. And my wife is very understanding. In this case, she loves getting together with her family, which doesn't happen very often. She loves talking to everyone, especially the nieces and nephews from out of town. But we probably should have decided beforehand how long we were going to stay.

Anyway, late this afternoon she asked me if I'd pick up some pizza for her and her Mah Jong group which broke the silence. We've back to talking again. All is good.
