Life in the Rough - Practice That Swing!

[1hope]

MT, the helping others has more often than not helped me just as much. In writing to all of you, I have clairified my own thoughts and feelings.

Many times I have been struggling with a feeling, and been surprised at how something will come to me while writing it all down.

[1hope]

Oh I trusted. I was probably over confidant in my trust.

Remember, this is my second time with this type of situation. Different husband, same situation with a "friend" as an OW.

IDK.

I hate that for you, that it is your 2nd time through with this.

I guess for me I was very naive and didn't think anything like this could happen to us. Like we were immune to it, I always thought we never fight, are always together, what could go wrong???? Guess I found out!

[1hope]

I didn't think it would happen to us either. I guess I've learned that it wasn't just a lack of morals "flaw" with my first H.

I guess I was also very naive and thought that because I had experienced such terrible drama the first time, and because I knew my second H and he knew my situation it would not happen to us.

I still wonder what part my illness played.

Morning Hope, Hope your evening was good and your coffee is warm this morning!

[1hope]

Very cold this morning, but we didn't get the nasty stuff that you all did. My evening was calm and I am thankful for that. H seems very relaxed and peaceful within himself. He is more like the man I used to know, showing very little alien.

We started to get some unexpected snow last night and he asked me to help him put the plow on our truck. We had taken it off to have the brake work done last week. We both bundled up and went outside. It was quite dark and still, with snow falling pretty heavy. There were 9 deer in our yard! (We'll be lucky to have any trees left by spring) Anyway, we got the plow on and as we were coming inside he thanked me for my help. He said it's so much quicker and easier when you help me with that. I said, you're welcome, we're pretty good partners aren't we? He said yes we are.

That made my night!

[MT35]

That made me smile Hope, your H's comment, it doesn't seem that long ago that he was getting pissed when he had to get your help with something! That is such a nice thing!

[1hope]

Oh yes. This time last year I couldn't do anything right.

I didn't know it yet, but it was because of ow.

What a difference a year can make. Thank you God. And my friends here!
