Why yes, Alive and well (the rumors of my death are greatly exaggerated). I still lurk, but have not found any threads that jump out as needing my "free advice". But my eye is always out for them.
Glad to hear you're doing well, I needed to make Sure the rumors weren't true . I feel the same I've kept up with a few but I never feel like I have much to add.
H started his new job and is commuting as well. Not as far as me but driving quite a bit. He's making almost triple what he had been making the past few years since starting at that place. Grad school is kicking my butt! I actually just was asked to apply for a new position making close to six figures but I don't know how I would mange school with that. Better to have more options then not enough, though!
We are taking the boys to NYC in a few weeks and then H and I have an anniversary weekend planned for the weekend in a couple months to a tropical destination.
Are things perfect? Absolutely not... But we COMMUNICATE. We talk. He really is much more cognizant of his behavior. I still get upset if something triggers the past but I deal with it on my own and it doesn't last long and I don't let it affect my Mood towards others.
The biggest trigger I've probably dealt with happened last week while I was out with the boys painting pottery of all places - OW was there. Fortunately I've dealt with running into her with the boys before. I repeated what I did previously. Didn't even acknowledge that I noticed her and continued on with what we were doing.
