Corri,
I haven't seen much evidence that H has forgiven me...he's never made it a secret that he stayed so he could be with his kids. At this point, I guess it doesn't matter.

Have I forgiven myself? I don't know. I don't beat myself up over it, but I'm still deeply ashamed and embarrassed. I certainly wish I'd have shown more strength of character and I don't really blame H for not being able to get past it.

I hope everybody had a nice Valentine's Day with their sweethearts. I got my sweethearts a big basket full of goodies...I am so grateful for them. They light up my life even in my darkest moments.


"Happiness is a butterfly, which, when pursued, is always just beyond your grasp, but which, if you will sit down quietly, may alight upon you."
