Letting the shoreline go

[optimist]

Thanks for the pointers on wedding rings. I am so glad you kept your cool and did not mention anything. I would have exploded (though I am getting better at shutting up). I would also love to have my H wear his, but don't dare ask. In fact, three days after we separated he went with our D to buy me a new wedding ring for my birthday, but it was too big and I have never worn it. It seemed mocking when he had spent those 3 days in OK at the wedding of the OW's son (though I only knew that 2 months later).

Do not worry about Retrouvaille. Your H's will agree when they are ready for it (I personally think they agree when God makes them ready for it). It took me nearly a year...

About the tapes: there are some exercise tapes that you can actually do with pre-school children. They do not seem very demanding physically, but it is better than nothing. You may want to check on that. If not, rolling on the carpet with and tickling your children must use up a ton of calories, and is more fun

Thanks Jackie for the book recommendation. We are going to the bookshop this evening and I will look it up. I seem to live at B&N lately.
