lol two wives down (I don't make good choices :0) is never a good look but Im a lucky guy where my partner now gets the fact that if Im on the water then Im a much happier man to be around.

Ha, ha. I get mine to drop me off at Longy then she goes for a run at Manly and I paddle to meet her there. Perfect in Nor easters

That's what I am trying to work on (not two wives) the happy to be round not working

I paddle three mornings a week and try to get a DW in on the weekend, however I think that is wearing pretty thin and I think I am lucky to get that much water time in. When I say to her I am looking at doing a DW on day x so I am not going to training in the morning and you can have a sleep in, she thinks she is winning and I know I am. The other route is I let her and push her to go out to dinners, movies etc at night and that's "her time", all the while I am stuffed from paddling in the morning so I am in bed and so is the kid, again win win situation.

These don't always work but a couple more options to use.

Mine cant wait to get me out of the houseAnd im happy to oblidge!

That's what I can't work out she used to surf she understands but since kids the planets have to align to get in some quality water time to fit into the "routine".

Pete, this is an age old problem and probably one of the major causes of relationship disasters. If your children are young, then her willingness to observe you having all the fun will deminish. If you want to keep a good relationship, do your part, keep the communication open and discuss how and when the best time for downwinders are. Or ignore all that and just go surfing or downwinding, she'll get over it.

Pete I think at some time or another we all have that frustration to be honest.
