Hi 3, I wrote out a long post to you earlier this morning but then my computer went all wonky and I lost it. mad

I am soooo glad for you that you are feeling less stressed and you will get some well deserved time off work! Yay!

I am sure it was difficult for you to have to go through the procedure without H, but I think it's great to look at the positive side - you are stronger than you think, and you can do whatever you want/need without him. That's great that your Mom stayed with you and stayed over to give you some company. Does she live in town? Does she ever watch your boys so you can have some 3bm time??

I am so impressed with the compassion you have for your H, even after all the crap he has put you through. I think a lesser person (which is probably most people) would be content to be bitter and might even take pleasure in her H struggling. I admire you, and your H is a damn fool if he doesn't see what he is missing.

I think it's good that you haven't had a chance to respond to all of H's emails. It's good that he knows you are busy, and you don't sit around waiting to hear from him. And you seem to be doing a great job of keeping your boundaries.

You are a rock star, 3. Keep your chin up and be proud. smile
