I forgot to talk about journaling...

everyone recommends it. I tried it and didn't like it...then i realized something...this is my journal. My thread is my journal. I post every day, I can go back and see my improvements, etc...

I also decided to write down "our story". It might not work for you, but I wanted to remember the good things in our relationship. We have 3 kids and I want them to know that we were happy...so I started writing, a letter to my kids that started with "how I met your mother" and talks about our high school years, dating, college, marriage, etc... the good and the bad.

I don't know if they will ever see it, but I wanted to do it while I still could. If it never gets read by anyone, so be it...but maybe it will be a great wedding gift someday too...how to not do what we did.

We'll see.

My inspiration was one of my favorite movies...Chaos Theory with Ryan Reynolds. It, of course, has a happy ending, but I still like it, even if I don't see a happy ending for me...but the movie isn't finsihed yet.
