first kelli, welcome to piecing, sounds like you have made quite a few friends here already. sorry to say i dont know alot of your sitch since this is my first visit.
backslides are hard to deal with, mostly because we want to kick ourselves for even having them. that is the hardest thing i think we have to do in piecing, is to bite our tounge.
but if there is one thing i hear on this forum more than anything else, is when you do bite it (don't bring up the r, don't bring up the ow, act like a friend, validate) then the payoffs are wonderful, but the payoffs are on THIER time not ours
and what happened to believing only 50% of what you see and not believeing 100% of what you hear? did you forget that?
what your hubby said in the past is of no consequence and was said when mind was confused.
