Okay - time for an update - this should give hope to all of you who think that PATIENCE doesn't pay off -

Positives:

1. My H is still around more often than not.
2. H has been putzing around our house and garage for the past several weeks.
3. H took kids shopping for mother's day cards and gifts for me, cooked breakfast after church, had a quickie and then hung around the rest of the day.
4. H has been regularly attending the kid's activities and has even asked what is coming up on the schedule.
5. After a misunderstanding last Friday night, he stopped by (after his softball game/bar close), woke me up, apologized and then we .
6. H is considering going out of town with us for the weekend later this month.
7. H is helping me get things done around here rather than get upset when I don't get it all done by myself (not always easy with 3 kids and a consulting business to attend to).

So, my patience continues. We are at almost 10 months and counting since he left, but for a guy who doesn't want to live here, he sure spends a lot of his time here! Not only with the kids, but also with me!

PATIENCE - PATIENCE - PATIENCE!
