Thanks Job and HTM. I did have a nice dinner and a surprise party last night with my family. I was so emotional that I actually started crying. LOL! Yay me!

I had my weekly meeting with my IC today and even though she does not quite believe in a MLC crisis -- she did state that she believes the 40's are quite tough. We talked for a bit and then she stated she would help to make me stronger -- for whatever happens in life. She even gave me some reading homework-- The Wizard of Oz and Other Narcissists.

I had one of my H's friends -- the one that helped him move out -- send me a message yesterday. He mentioned that he pointed out the mistakes my H was making -- but stated he knew my H had to figure it out for himself. I appreciated the fact that he reached out to me and that he stated he wished there was something he could do to help. It appears that others are starting to see. We have only told a few friends -- but I am sure more will find out eventually.


Me: 42
Him: 45
