Thanks, everyone.

I definitely need to get in the right mindset for the LRT/180/37 Rules. I am probably half-heartedly sticking to them because I just want so much for us to work through this... But I completely agree that what I have been doing isn't working and need to get straight with this!!

Melissa, yes, my husband will watch the kids - but other than going to work out, I stay home because I don't want to miss out on good family time. He went out last night and was surprised that I went out too. He said that was really good and he was glad I did that...

Paul - excellent point. He needs to choose me... And I can't control that.

Anyway, H and I went out to breakfast this morning and it was really nice. I am trying to let it be just a really nice moment and not "so what does this mean for our future???" Baby steps....
