How ya doin' Sweetie? Look at that HS. Underneath that tough exterior is a very sweet guy!
So how has your week gone? I'm so glad that it's Friday already. I've had enough of work this week!
I've thought a lot about your sitch, maybe because it's so darn similar to mine. I do think that your husband seems to want to reach out. He is definitely p/a but he sounds as if he he's still in the game so to speak. Mine did that to but I got to the point where I had had enough. You know p/a's want it all and usually their way. I didn't understand this. If I had had it in me I may have been able to play it out and bide my time but he was damaging my children, so I told him that he had to get off the fence and file. Possibly if you do this right, you may be able to come through this with what you want, while at the same time giving him the opportunity to work through his issues.
This is definitely not for the faint of heart, but you're strong. I can see that in you!
