Doing hard time on the MLC chain gang.

Greetings Everyone,

First things first, Today is “Little Friday” this is my day of the week that I am Superman, nothing messes up this day. It is a day of affirmation for me, and I invite you to join me. It is a day that I wake up and say, “Life is good” no matter what!! So when you get off work today, put on that music that takes to a different place, pop open your favorite beverage and sit back and relax, I will be right there with you. I will have on a little Bob Marley and kicking back with a Corona Light (no lime), I can hear the waves lapping the beach now, BTW it is 72 degrees and sunny here!!!! Makes that trip to the Caribbean a little easier.

It has been a couple of weeks since I posted last, needed to take a break from the boards. Sometimes you need time to take stock of what is going on in your life to see if the choices you have made are the right choices for you and your family. Additionally, I had to take time to search my feelings about my wife, to see if I wanted to continue this path I have chosen thus far.

I am still committed to my wife and my marriage and I am still prepared for the TIME this journey is going to take.

There are many positives going on in my sitch, really too many to list. Things are headed in the right direction just never moving as fast as I would like. I will say this, last week I went to dinner with my wife at her request !! While at dinner we talked about many things and progress was made, she did not say she is ready to work on the marriage yet. She did say, “I am sorry for hurting you”. (my jaw did hit the table) I am taking everything very slow and just keeping a Positive Mental Attitude.

I know I am leaving out many details here and I hope to share more successes in the near future. I hope this is an inspiration to all those who are reading this, I am not a success story yet and I have zero expectations but I take things a day at a time. The one constant that I learned now matter what your situation is like, is that all this takes TIME. I was rereading my journal today from back in late October 2009 and one of my big goals was that my W would be back in the house by March. Well it is March and while I feel a lot better today than I did in October, she is not back and I don’t see that on the horizon yet, more TIME.

Happy “Little Friday” !!!!
