Hi Everyone! Thanks for swinging by! Saffie and Limbo - ladies, thank you. I know you both know how it feels. I guess I was just taken by surprise. I haven't felt that way in MONTHS and then panick set in.

CL - thank you. Your insight is very helpful. I've been thinking about your words all weekend and really concentrating on the feelings I have been feeling. Your words "Decide what you want to do with the emotion--let it pass, tolerate the discomfort, decide if there's a problem worth solving, or something else," have been particularly helpful. I've been practicing with day to day interactions, not just with H, but with others (I know, I'm a dork...just need to get my arms around this) but processing is good.

I guess this whole incident is just reminding me that I'm a work in progress. That's a positive thing to be reminded of.

Had a pretty good day. H and I just kicked around town. Had some friends over last night, today we went out for breakfast, grocery shopping, shoe shopping, just fun stuff. Tonight we watched Far from Heaven. If you have been the victim of, or a participant in an affair, don't watch it. We made it through ok. It was the first time since his A that we were able to watch a movie with an affair incident. We have stopped countless movies mid-stream due to nature of the material. Anyway, that was a bit strange at times, but overall ok.

Hope everyone is having a great weekend!
