i've been fortunate enough that, through prayer, i have found my way to doing the right things with regard to plan a...i'm seeing signs from my wife that there may be a secong chance on my horizon. (see my posts in other and general)
question: should i write this stuff down and present it to my wife, or just let her figure out that i'm working on it? as i said, she's giving me what i think are positive signs...

I have two suggestions...the first is to choose a thread and then stick to it. You will find that people "follow" your story much better and are better equipped to help. You will get the most traffic on the GQ II forum.
The second is to let your ACTIONS speak for themselves. Giving your wife a list of the things you are working on may work against you in a "you've GOT to notice the things I'm doing or you don't care" kind of way. She may also interpret a list as a challenge for her to do the same...which is NOT what you want. You don't want her to feel anything negative when she thinks about you. No pressure, you're just the great guy that she fell in love with and can fall in love with again.
