I screwed up

I haven't slept tonight, I have been thinking of you all night. I want to say I am sorry to you so bad, because I want to explain to you about last night. I was gearing myself up for talking to Jennifer about the job and the boys.

I really do want this job, and there are a lot of reasons. The biggest reason is it would give me the chance to get back to doing something that I love. So that I don't let myself fall back into just existing each day. I don't ever want to look at a picture or in the mirror to shave and see him looking at me, because I hate him more than anything.

I wanted it for us at the same time. The education benefits that come with the job are too good to pass up. I am hoping and praying for it for a lot of reasons. The biggest one is that I started the process yesterday to have my military coursework and life experiences transferred over into a civilian transcript. With the work I have already done, I am actually looking at the possibility of having two degrees. One in criminal justice, and the other in engineering. If it weren't for you I wouldn't have had the courage to even begin this process.

I want this so that I can give me, you and the boys even more opportunities. You showed me that I do have it inside me, and you know what it is time to get it out of me. I realise I am getting kind of a late start, but I also have a good head start with my military coursework. In all honesty, it would always leave me with 2 options for working. Both of them doing things that I love. There is that third option, but until I convince you to do the electrical side of my visions come to life it just wouldn't be as much fun.

I love you, and I hope you can forgive me.

I love you and thoroughly appreciate the time you spent in explaining what was really happening. Just, pretty please, promise me to have a think before launching into something like that again? Or alternatively, you could always try that novel idea of keeping me up to date and then it wouldn't hit as such an out-of-the-blue surprise. ;) Love ya!
