Hi! All that sounds pretty optimistic to me! If his eyes were really teary, I wonder what that means? Perhaps OW is breaking it off with him since he is still with you? Or maybe it's the other way around and he's trying to end it with her??? Either way, since he was just away, I would take it as a good sign.
Could the weird muffled message been from her? You don't have caller ID do you? In my sitch, when OW gets desperate, and can't get H on his cells, she calls the house. I hate that. Once I didn't answer, twice I have (she was very polite) and once my D did.
I know what you mean about having moments when everything seems/feels normal (I think that's a good sign, too), then you remember the sitch you're in and suddenly you're in the twilight zone ... "a dimension of sound, a dimension of sight, a dimension of mind. You're moving into a land of both shadow and substance, of things and ideas. You've just crossed over into the Twilight Zone."
