NLT 18 years of memories don't just go away like that. That was a very nice post from Snodderly. I know this isn't easy for you.

Take care of yourself. You are doing good!

Thank you Glam!!

Yes, it was a very nice post from Snodderly & I really appreciate all of you & your support!!!

I'm feeling ex H's presents, well not really present but I don't know how to explain it. I think I said somewhere else last week that when I would think about H or see his face in my mind it was so far away, but lately when I see his face it seems to be closer. I really don't know how to explain that or what it means if anything. Well anyway, you can't just throw away all these years of memories, we had so many!! Good ones too.

Thank you all for being here for me! You all mean so much to me & I wish we could all met in person some day!!

That is funny!!!! You right, they probably would ban everybody!!!!

I'm doing ok so far today, as the day goes on my mind starts wondering but I'm trying to keep from thinking too much & leaving it in God's hands!

I hope you are doing well also. Thanks for checking on me!

Hi nlt,
Thanks for posting on my thread. Yes, I would also like to see my cyber friends in person one day.

You know, I still can't believe how similar our sitchs are. We also had 30 years of good memories! I also cannot imaging that my H can just forget about it.

I hope you are doing well. Have a nice week. (((HUGS)))

Hi True,

It is so hard to believe that our H's can just forget. I don't believe they can, especially if they really & truely loved us as my H said he did. They are just lost right now.

I hope you are doing well also & have a wonderful week.

NLT thanks for stopping by my thread. I appreciate your kind words.

Your h is lost right now.

Any plans for yourself this weekend? Have you joined any clubs or groups? Are you getting out more, so not to focus on your h?

The upcoming months with the holidays will be hard. Do have any plans for those, so you can be around family and friends?

Hi Nlt,
Just checking in on you as you haven't posted in a few days.

I agree with Glamgirl. The holidays will be hard. You should make it a point of joining a club/group to take your mind off H, even for a short time.

Hi Glam & Addie!

Thank you for posting to me & checking in. No, I haven't made any plans for the weekend. I'm just working around my house. I'm really tired, the last couple of days I've worked in my yard & I'm worn out. Plus I brought all my plants in, by myself as it is supposed to be in the 30's Monday night. I'm pretty much of a homebody! I like to stay home. I have started some work on the CMA Awards, I'm on the phone a lot dealing with that but the closer it gets the more I'll be out.

I finished that one cross stitch project I started & now I'm working on another one. I'm really enjoying that, plus I'm enjoying my dogs!!

I plan to be with my parents for the holidays. Last year was bad b/c we were still married but my H was with the OW. I'm not doing anything special for the holidays. I'm sure we will have lunch & my aunt & cousin will come over. That will be about it. No plans for shopping or anything. No money right now to shop. I've got to get a full time job!!

I do agree, my H is so lost!!! I hope one of these days he will wake up. I just keep praying for him.

Hi Nit, I am a homebody too,but I made myself get out and about and do things, it really helps with detachment and healing. I too haven't much money and I note you love your dogs, I made some lovely new friends just from dog walking and engaging in conversations with them.
I also do some voluntary work, costs me nothing really but gives me so much.
I see you always call your X my husband and maybe if you could write xhusband it would help you to detach. I found this so hard the first few times but it did help. I still don't like to say the word Divorced but I think thats a generation thing,like there is a stigma and shame attached to it.
It is so hard to move out of our comfort zone and try new things, easier to remain out of circulation and with what we know but I can tell you the rewards are great if you manage it.
Does your church have any groups you could join or a sewing group, we have a quilters group and they all meet to sew and chat once a month.
Your x husband may be lost but he has remarried and has a new life, you have to be the one to heal yourself now and it will help to remove the thoughts you have if you just try a few new things.
Take care.
