Default I don\'t feel as though I am concentrating on my game....

OK, I bought my boardwalk condo in AC with the money I won in the 10/20 and 20/40 games in AC. To get my wife to accept a weekend apartment thing I sunk my entire bankroll into this place to show her I was committed to this idea. She is not the least interested in poker or gambling, so to get more time at the tables I had to buy a place where she would be comfortable, so goodbye poker bankroll. I figured this would be worth it, so I would get more time at the tables.

The trade off I made was that I had to move down to the lower limit 10/20 game, due to lack of that stack of hundreds I kept in my desk. I also have painting, a floor to install and other crap that has to be done on my apartment. So I slip out into the night to play 10/20, however, I haven't had one winning weekend in a month. This is so unlike me, since I was getting spoiled picking up the Benjamins for the last couple of years at the Taj and Borgata.

I still study everyday when I read Sklansky for an hour to and from work on the subway in NYC. I also read twoplustwo constantly.

Is this just variance? Or do I have my mind on other things? I know I don't suck that badly, since I have winning stats on sharkscope and officialpokerrankings.com(player name nineinchal), not to mention all my live winnings that I kissed bye bye when I laid the downpayment on the condo. So what is in my head that is defeating me lately?
