Hi Slowly and thanks for the welcome.

Brief recap: H had A in July and then Oct 2004 and moved in and out of her home after a few days each time. I didn't trust H so, moved into an apartment with 1 year lease. H says no contact with OW since Jan.
H is working at establishing trustworthiness so I will begin to trust him again. (sounds so easy on paper).

We have 4 children, youngest freshman in college and now home for summer. Others are married with small children.
New little one in the family today...8 lb girlie

I have struggled with anger and fear along the way. Sometimes losing the battle with a whiny complainy attitude. Faithful friends keep me aware of the attitude when it seeps back in.

I've done some GAL things that worked and some that haven't. I love the botanical gardens and have a new season pass. I gave up shopping just for the fact it now kinda makes me sad. However, walking the outdoor mall with a wonderful fountain still tops my list. The canoeing and backpacking will be interesting and different for the summer as I try it out.

Best 180 was to try new things--that so suprised my H. He wants to join with me as I try some of them. H is having fun and a little nervous about what the next new thing may be--LOL

My goals are being met ever so slowly...I do like the fact I'm meeting goals even if they are tiny tiny ones.

Next goals include:
Looking for ways to keep growing while piecing M back together: KLA CD's
Address my issues of finaces with 10 week seminar
Make list of the strengths and weaknesses in M then work out how to improve these areas.

So, life changes and I'm in for the ride.
Life is very good.
