Raindeer,

Where are you lurking these days? Do you have a new thread? I don't think it was the going away that provided the difference. I think it just gave my H a chance to put into action some of the things he had been saying.

Remember, my H ask ME if he could come home, so he is the one who expressed an interest in repairing our R. I had had almost no contact with H prior to this revelation in mid Dec.

How's your dbing going? Might be a good time to reread it and start the program from basic's. I found this really helped me and kept me focused on what i wanted to achieve.

I really do know how hard it can be but i applied alot of patience, no expectations and worked on maintaing a high PMA.

Let me know where you new thread is and i'll check in on you.

Take care

Lee
