Hey fellas, good to hear from you.

I'm coming up on one year since my first post here, doesn't seem like that long ago but a lifetime ago as well.

We're doing very well, thanks for asking. We spent a week at the beach and it was a nice break. We got back last Sunday and found out we're having kid #3 around March so that's the big news around here.

The "former" WW applies, all's quiet on the western front though I still check up on things. Nothing from OM or his wife which is fine by me. Hopefully they worked things out (or she cleaned his butt out in the divorce smile )

Now if the temp outside would just drop below 100-degrees...

Take care guys.

Thanks, mb. It's kind of surreal sometimes.

Glad to hear the good news!

Now, if I can get your (F)WW to call my WW and let her know how much better it is to stay together than break up, I'd have it made!

NW - CONGRATS and all the best to you and your FWW! Oh, and once your FWW finishes that call to TimB's WW - can she call mine please? Maybe a conference call would be easier - kill two birds with one tone kind of thing.

Thanks in advance.

Congratulations, NW!

If it is a boy, I would suggest naming him Nicholas George.

Well, by that rationale and with one son and one daughter already, I must be a beautiful real man. Hmmm.

Thanks Vanilla, wulfpack and Jessi for the kind words.

And NG, do you think the world would really be ready for another NG, even if only in namesake? smile

Or a real beautiful man?

Just a random question if you guys don't mind...

During the worst of the affair, my wife would get these bad migraines that would last for three or four days at a time. I'm convinced they many were stress-induced because, well, having an affair and having to lie about it is probably stressful.

The other weekend she got a bad headache and it immediately triggered me. Eblaster and phone are still clear, things are going really great between us and I really don't suspect any contact. But, still, it got me down.

So she asked if anything was up and I just said I was tired--I didn't want to bring up the a-hole and the trigger because, in a weird way, it seems like it keeps him alive or something.

So was that an utter failure at O&H or excusable?

Now, as I'm typing this out, I'm thinking I should just tell her about the trigger and be done with it. But it seems like it's a bit late to be bringing up this a-hole as I sure hate reminding her of him.

Maybe I should buy him some airline tickets to Iran so he can go hiking...yeah, that'd make me feel better! think

So what do y'all think? Keep it to myself and get over it or keep the mudder-effer's memory alive by mentioning him?
