I'm holding on to anger.. and I don't know how to release it or let it go. I'm not usually one to hold a grudge either, so this is really hard for me to figure out...
DG, I totally feel you on this. I have anger at my H’s friends, one was the best man at our wedding. I thought they were my friends also. They are not only supporting H, but just heard his side and accepted OW into their circle like I never existed. After 12 years of being there for them. I forgave H and even OW, but the friends, I have a really, really hard time with. I’ve prayed on it, but nothing seems to help just yet. I guess all I can say is with SILs, it takes time to heal those wounds. Just don’t fall into bitterness.

And as for this… well, let me tell you, I know about this. LOL. I am so stressed, I am in avoidance totally as to my situation. Instead of doing something to get past my financial and household chore problems, I am avoiding. Because it all just seems to insurmountable. I finally decided to break it into manageable chunks and work off of checklists. I haven’t started, but I bet that would work for you also. Less scary when you make them small projects.
I’m glad SIL told you her side of it. Now it’s up to you to accept that or not. I think it was very nice what she said and you know now that she stands with you although she feels she has to choose H, her blood.
