It's funny how we can now find peace by settling for any amicable breakup
Yes. Its almost sad my expectations of my H has dropped to where now I just hope we can be peaceful. I have given up hope of him loving me or staying faithful.

You will make it for your DD's sake, and they are very lucky to have you.
And I am lucky to have them. Thanks nocode.
Jeff, yes, my first ever race is this weekend. H has no clue I am running it. Thank you for reminding me I have good things ahead of me.
kat, sue, tired, girl, thank you so much for your support. While I hate that you understand all too well, being less alone in this mess is truly helpful to me.
Hope, my friend....

If I can do it....I know you can :-)
I can only hope to do it like you, with grace and elegance.
And yes, in March, OW and her H were still reconciling, going to Retro. Who knows where they are now, but yes, (I think tired said it), I would be so sad for OW's H if this was happening to him, after putting faith into OW once again.
Really, all of your support means the world, thank you so much.
Just wanted to say hi, let you know I'm thinking of you...I can really empathize with that deeply sad feeling, and hoping for peaceful interactions as my sitch comes to its seemingly inevitable next step.
You inspire me with your 5K run this weekend; I keep talking about starting to run. How much and how often do you run? I know you are a good bit younger than me (I'm 49) and almost certainly in better shape (I'd love to be 20-25lbs lighter...I really felt old and out of shape hiking steep inclines these past couple of weeks), but I'm really interested in hearing about your progress. I think I may be working on a new goal!!
Thanks LWB... one of these days, I'm going to grab a really cheap SW fare and get up to StL...
When I started running last summer, I could barely run a lap. I downloaded the Couch to 5K running program on my iPod and slowly, week by week, ran more and more. Until I got to a 5K. I didn't run a lot this winter, and this race will be a bit of a struggle, but I'm doin' it. I run now about 3-4 times a week. And trust me, I need to lose weight and am not in the best of shape!!
Well, as of this evening about 6pm, this is even more on my "goal" list...
H is sleeping elsewhere tonight... he says at a short-term lease apt., but as i think about it more, it's probably with OW (I have not been successful at cutting out snooping 100%, and know that her kids are away for 2 week with their dad...) I will update with more details on my thread later tonight when S12 goes to bed. H did say something to S18...I'm feeling sooo sad right now...
PS: Even though I am done with the Couch To 5K, I can promise you I still prefer the couch OVER the 5K. teehee!
You're silly lwb! You made me laugh on that one. Ah yeah, the comfy couch. Remember how I talked about that program last fall. Yep, still haven't done it. I need an IPod to put it on. That counting in your head stuff doesn't work as well.

Sue, I could not do it with a stopwatch. I can barely run and not fall. But add running AND checking a stopwatch? Oh dear Lord.... Get the smallest iPod for $99 refurbed, off the Apple site. The Couch programs were free to download.
