Sounds like a good day overall - how'd the prayers go?

Nikki, your welcome! when I remembered to pray, they went great! I was even setting a timer so I wouldn't forget.
On the other hand. Today I'm stressing. I don't know what's wrong with my s3 (b-day today). He will go on the potty for a whole day, then the next day pee in his night diaper and then pee in his underwear all over the floor.
ug. I can't stand this anymore. Thought I would write it here to try and get it out. This is so extremely frustrating. You could think that maybe he is not ready, but why can he go two whole days then? I really wanted this over by the time he hit 3. Guess it's not going to happen.
I've tried to reinforce so much when he does well, and try to minimize the messups, but this is like the end for me.
I know this sounds silly, it's just over potty training. I guess I can't handle the inconsistancies.

Well. today started out bad, but ended pretty well. s3 went to the potty most of the day, for the exception of peeing outside in his underwear and taking them off to run naked thru the wet grass. very interesting.
We made cupcakes for his b-day today, and he ate more than I'd like. well, me too. oops.
Still trying to figure out the whole contracting job costs. made more calls and it looks expensive, but still seems like a really good opportunity. i hope this is what God's plan for us is. I would love love love for my H to find something better. he really doesn't like where he is now. It used to be a fun job years ago, but not anymore and there's no room for promotion.
oh, and I also got lots of cleaning done, like scrubbing the stove (desperately needed) and the walkin shower (also desperately needed). They got so dirty since I hadn't been able to do much, but I had a lot of energy and just wanted to clean, and my back isn't even hurting that bad either! I think the monavie is starting to help it too! I'm definitely not getting worse, even from all the work I'm doing. So that's really cool!

ST, sounds like your doing great and IMHO I can think it's really due to your obedience to Him & His Will
Good to hear your health is ok too & that you're able to get some much needed thngs around the house done
I wanted to thank you so much for being part of my thread & offering up such great & needed Scriptural Advice - that's where my biggest dilemma is at the moment due to the "legal stuff" somehow developing a life of their own now
Thanks again ST, you're not only one special lady - you're one of the Heavenly Father's special envoys in this fight against satan who s trying to destroy all of our marriages!!
I do believe you that obedience to Him is blessing us. Although I'm definitely not perfect, but this is really the first time I feel like many great opportunities are being given to us.
I'm still praying for you too. I would hate to be in your shoes, and your doing really really well. God is definitely giving you strength and you will have so much to give after this.

oh, found out another M close to end. a friend of my Moms M for 22 years last child just went to college and W left and giving D papers.
What's good is that the H is not about to let his life be ruined by this and he's going to keep moving forward. my mom gave him this site and the book, and it seemed he was interested too. my mom always thought he was probably a very good H too and feels very suprised by it all.
I pray that he can find the same blessings that Nikki and I have found.

ST - I want to echo CM on this. It's been a whirlwind couple days since my W came to NY for a joint function we will be at tomorrow. Huge changes in our R. My D is not busted, but I can't even begin to explain the epiphamy in my W since Wednesday nite. And there is no doubt that He is moving her. More details soon. But undoubtedly, your encouragement to stay in Faith is what keeps the momentum moving forward. He is working a small miracle this week and you have helped me keep focused. Thank you. May you have a blessed day.

awe Phil, that is so very nice of you. I really believe that the Lord is blessing my family now because of both what I did thru the sitch, and that I'm trying to help others as well. Well, that was after my friend told me that... and I thought, wow, your right!
I have so much hope for your sitch Phil, and just become so faithful that you are excited for what M you will have with your W when things are worked out. I truely got to that point in my sitch even before he ever came back to me. I did still have my down times, but I would really get excited about my H coming back to me because I had faith that God's plan for that was there.

ST just catching up... so sorry to hear about your friend! Man it seems like the separation/D thing is just rampant. I dunno if it's the age group or what, but I swear half the people I know are in the middle of some kind of M struggles right now.
So glad for your energy burst, I LOVE getting stuff like that done (such as the stove cleaning) and looking at it every day... just nice to know it's done.

Nikki, I know it's so aweful how many of us are going thru this? We are so lucky aren't we? Although my h isn't perfect, I have such a love for him, and I really look at him genuinely, and I have no thoughts about what happened last year. I thank God for the Lord giving me such a forgiving heart.
well, can't stay on long, my s3 just came up with strep and he was up ALL NIGHT. seriously. i'm sooooooo tired, but I'm still ok. Hopefully the rest of us don't get it. I'm so upset that I ran out of the MonaVie for him last week. oh well. he started antibiotics today, although I'm not excited about that, but I know my H wouldn't want it another way. He doesn't believe much in the natural stuff. I just hope he doesn't keep getting it like many other kids do using antibiotics. He does seem like he got some sleep today, although his ear still hurts. It's so sad. Now we both have a sick baby!
