I just came home and found all these wonderful super-positive messages! Feels good !
I also see the convo as a great improvement, but it was with high hopes that I came here and from now on I should lower my expectations. Patience and more patience...
There was a great post on MLC resources, something about WAS been addicted to OW, I wanted to reread it and it wouldn't open. Then I tried 6 stages of MLC and posts written by those in MLC and neither would open. Did it happen to any of you or is it just me and a piece of junk I call comp?

First of all, {{{{{HUGS}}}}} for handling phone call with H so well! You are wonderful and doing great!!!
Now, I went to check out the MLC stuff, and I am getting the same thing--a redirect to the main forum page. I am hitting notify for this post and hopefully a mod can check in and let us know what is going on. I was thinking today, after re-reading DR last night, that I needed to further examine the MLC threads, too!! UGH! figures!
As for high hopes, let me pass on something my pastor said to me on Sunday, when I told him I needed prayers to deal with my anger about H and his ignoring the kids. He told me that I was always my husband's source of accountability, but right now, I cannot hold him accountable. He told me that dealing with disappointment and anger will be easier when I learn to NOT expect anything from him, but to continue to pray for him to accept and step into the place of leadership that God intends for him in our family.
It has definitely given me a new perspective for dealing with my H.
