Welcome, cwodavids, and I think you are going to have to do whatever you must in order to be there at home every night as part of your own family. I have read your entire post and I commend your responsible commitment and efforts so far, but too many things have changed since your 2012 move for your wife to be able to handle them in your continued absence.
