Thank you one and all for checking in to see how I'm doing, offering words of encouragement or compliments that are very kind.
I have a question? What would this forum do without all of you? I know I love hearing from anyone who takes the time to peek in. It makes me smile.
Huddy & Smothy, how was your day? Yes, someday I know our spouses will realize what a mistake they have made. My IC has said that he is "positive" my W will want to rebuild a realtionship with me after the D is final within 6-12 months. Why does he think so? Because of her MS, and once she's really on her own (not like now with her Mom) she'll realize how much I did for her and cared for her. I'm not boasting at all. I may not have his quote exact, but that's what he said. He's seen it happen often where one S becomes the 'caregiver" of the other S.
TenBook, how was your day? What a kind thing to post! I feel the same way about you. You seem to be involved in so many other's sitches. We'd be lost without you, TB.
Defacto & Eirinn, how was your day? Mine was as good as could be under the circumstances. The GAL and PMA are really helping. I do have "Meetup" plans with 2 different groups this weekend:
Tomorrow night, dinner and a movie.
Sunday afternoon, a day at the horse track -- one I haven't been to in years and we are expecting (are you ready for this?) 120 people to show up!!!
I'm in no hurry for the weekend to fly by, but I am looking forward to both.
I haven't heard from my W since 2 weeks ago yesterday with the text about the AT&T bill. I am NOT going to contact her. She's still working this out in her head, I believe. If she wants to discuss anything, I'm sure I'll hear from her, so I don't want to pressure her.
I don't have that detachment fear any longer. It's gone, and I think it's because of the loving folks here, the GALs and a different perspective on my part -- it's out of my control -- whatever is meant to happen will. It is truly in God's hands.
Do any of you have any plans for the weekend? I hope so!
Hugs to all - yes, even the guys. LOL
