My Wife Left Me!

Yes, my wife did leave me but only for 2 weeks. If you didn't know I work in an oil refinery and every 3 years we bring the facility down for maintenance. Unfortunately that means there is work done round the clock. Which means long hours. I have found that it is better for everyone if I ship my wife and kids off somewhere. I work all those hours and don't have time to spend the extra money so my wife takes care of it for me. It works out well. Angela will be in California spending time with her family and I will be working. I am not bitter, not at all. Sorry, have to go to work. You may see a lack of postings in the next couple weeks. It is not because I don't care. ~Erik

Just want you to know that you have a beautiful family. We had fun having them over for a swim in the pool yesterday. Grandpa Stan took lots of pictures. Bad Aunt Diane took none!! Hope all is well with you. Take care and have fun

Well, your wife left you... I left mine. You're lucky it's only for 2weeks, I don't get to see my wife for 3 or 4 months! :( Have fun during turn-around man! Did you decide on a name for the bambino yet?

ehhhh Yeah`! I`m agree with my lovely husband.Angela is living just for 2 weeks I think everyone can handle that,and beside you know that she need some vacations before the baby is due,because after september she will be very busy with OLIVER(new baby).So it was a good idea to send her with her Mom...Good for you! ah!...Have fun working to many hours.
