Thanks for digging my thread up from the archives, jacqm! So glad to hear from you. Haven't had much gumption to post my own story for a while, but lurking and reading about everyone else.
H is back in MC with me for now. We're trying to mutually hit a "reset" button on the R. Harder than it sounds, but we had a little mini "date night" last night (just played 2 rounds of Scrabble after the kids went to bed. He smoked me, like usual. I start off strong, but he almost always wins). Then I went to bed with a raging head cold, and he went to his downstairs office to work. Small progress. We're both so flippin' uncomfortable with each other, it's difficult to see how we'll get out.
But that's where God comes in, right? Anyway, our anniversary is next week (and ironically, one year since OW contacted H for the last time) and he has been proactive in making sure I give him the babysitter's phone number, so he can call her about it. That is also nice (usually I have to line up all the childcare ducks in a row).
And he's been leaving me Good Morning notes like he used to (nothing mushy, just a smiley face note), and that is also something that makes me feel nice.
Well, I was interrupted by a man at the door from the electric company asking for past due amount of $219 - ugh. Thank God today is payday and I wrote a check. Nightmare to be chased down on so many fronts. Financially, spiritually, emotionally. YUCK. My D7 had resistant strep this month, and her 2nd Rx cost us $192 - OMGosh it's so awful not to be able to afford health insurance!! I miss having a $20 copay for everything. (ending rant)
Anyway, that's the small scoop from here. No fat drama -this week, anyway. Read the blog if you need any more drama.
Forget the former things; do not dwell on the past. See, I am doing a new thing! Is 43:18-19
If it seems slow in coming, wait. It's on its way. It will come right on time. Hab 2:3
