Well done Rabbit - sounds like you are getting off to a grand start! You will be glad that you have done those chores and it will work it's way back to H - he is watching you, via your S -you can guarantee that! Make sure that the traffic getting back is very positive!
Glad too that you went for a ride with your horse. I don't know the area very well around Oxfordshire but reasonably so ... it is very beautiful. I love being at my sisters place up near Windsor whenever I get the opportunity and it's not too far away as the crow flies from you - or should that be the red kites as they are not far from the Chilterns!
My day has sucked, to be honest. I have felt much the same as you and I have been railing at my WAH in his absence! I can't understand why he can't get his butt back here and work on things and, reading over some of his emails from a month ago, he makes things sound so clear cut and plausible that anyone else would agree with him that to be ending our M is the way to go. That makes my heart ache. You just want to batter them into some sense really, don't you feel that way? You are right - that is a DB no-no even though it's very tempting!! LOL
Sounds like you didn't have the best counsellor there ... my experience is that they should listen and challenge but never offer solutions, especially one so radical as to suggest a trial separation. I think that I would go call them on that one and ask "do you realise the wheels that you have now put in motion" - probably best not to but you hate to think of that poor practitioner doing it to any other unsuspecting couple. Makes me shudder.
So, now that you have your 'list' for the week, make sure that you complete at least one task per day.
You sound as though you are coping OK today - are you feeling that way? Don't forget to post and vent your feelings here - it's safe and it's all about US - probably the only thing that is at the moment! Read widely around this site - all the information is out there and you only have to ask to get a pretty swift response! Check by my posts today for a few words of wisdom that I have shared with others in regard detaching.
Will catch you tomorrow. Have a great day - it's not even 11am for you, yet!
