Yes I had a blast. The celebrations lasted over 4 days and 'blessed' me with 7lbs.
Glad to hear it! You know you had a good time when your scale reaches new heights, LOL!

I caught him watching me a number of times. I am sure he is still seeing her, but have no idea of his plans. I hope he ditched her to go! I'll bet cash she doesn't know where he was.
Last week he actually went to DD16's open house at school so I could attend DS13's. But he did tell DD that he could help her with her Stat class b/c he used to teach it. DD laughed..."Dad I am in Algebra2 not stat!" He was in the right place but wasn't sure why. A glimpse into his state of mind.

He may hint that things aren't going so well with OW Calls and overtures increase He comes up with excuses to see you He wants to spend more time with the kids He brings up memories of good times He sees that you're a stronger, more independent woman...and he likes what he sees
The authors suggest that you find a mutual friend you trust implicity that you're both close to and have the friend "feel him out." Your H may open up more to the friend than to you.
"Obviously, holding off when the man you love seems on the brink of reconciliation is murderously difficult. You'll need to summon up every ounce of willpower you've got. But if you figuratively or literally collapse into his arms at this point, without knowing knowing why he's done such a seeming about-face, you're headed for trouble. So try to forget your heart for now, and concentrate on keeping a wary little part of your head on red alert, antennae up, as you assess his true motivations." (p. 181)
If he comes back because he loves and misses YOU, fine. If he comes back because he misses the kids, being at home, is tired of the disapproval from friends and family, etc., WATCH OUT. You will be right back to where you were before.

You go, girl! It IS nice to remember that EVERYONE ELSE thinks you're terrific! Enjoy your life, have fun, learn how to belly dance, and put WH out of your mind.
Meanwhile, this new and improved WhatNow will really get him thinking!
