Ok Almost caught up....Wow so funny how last week we all had a few steps back or had really hard struggles.
So how is everyone's GAL'ing going? Who has signed up for a class, gym or something. You can't miss this step. Its important. So tell me tell me....I'm going to keep bugging you all until I hear you have. Plus it's that something aside of this whole mess that we're in, that's just for you. Your investing in you, the new improved stronger you. So please don't skip this part. It's easy to concentrate on the other strategies but forget that she listed this one in the book too.
I started salsa lessons at the community recreation program through the city when this all started. Was the best thing I did. IT was that 1 hour a week where I cold forget just for a minute how hard things are and laugh. IT ended and I'm looking for a new one.
It seems like a lot of our spouses are similar. I am reading the book by Willard Harley called Surviving An Affair. He was an owner and operator of 10 Drug rehab centers for many years. He has his doctorate. He crossed over into marital counseling and found out that he had to treat the betraying spouses the same as the addicts. He explains how affairs are an addiction. It's very interesting. If you can, get the book.
I agree with the book. After my H came and told the family he left for 3 days then came home broke it off with her and apologized. But somewhere in the 2 weeks that he was home, he was angry and mentally just screwed up-crying over her, punching holes in the wall, distant, and moody. So now after reading the book I know what it was, he was going through the withdrawal symptoms of it. Ok going on a walk, need some exercise, then gonna come home and search for new salsa class again! GAL girls...back in a bit......
