WOW!!! That 180 thing is the greatest. I read and re-read it again. It gave me a sense of security, kind of like peace of mind. I sort of knew to hang on to some of those notions -- but it is really hard. Just reading them was such an inspiration. Not because I think those things or actions will win my husband back- - but it will bring back out the side of me he once loved. - Actually as I was reading them a minute ago - he walked in. Just waltzed right in to the room I am bedding down in as if nothing were happening. My reaction was one to be proud of. Nice, cordial, distant (not too far), no questions, no accusations, nothing but nice, short, and blunt. He just went up the stairs into his new lair and I am not going to peer up at his window from mine down here... I am not going to get up in the mid night hour and look in his car... I am going to crawl into my bed, cuddle up with 2 noisy pugs and hopefully sleep soundly.
WIWH - thank you.

Sally,

It's good to hear you feeling better about yourself. Get the book Divorce Busting by Michelle Weiner Davis. I couldn't put it down. Finished it the first time in like 2 days.

She also has a newer book called Divorce Remedy that I havn't read yet, but I've heard a lot of good things about it.

Just like you said...

Bump - This is the advice I need every day, evening, and even at night since sleep is an occasional thing!
GOOD FOR YOU!
I messed up on Wednesday and engaged her in conversation she didn't want. We have an appt. to night at 9PM to talk. I think I'll make it brief, i.e. review and sign tax return, decide on fix/replace garage door. It broke last night <img border="0" title="" alt="[Frown]" src="images/icons/frown.gif" />
We have a Pinewood Derby race that our Boys will be competing in early Sat; so I'll beg off on needing to be fresh and ready for them. All up beat, refreshing (if my prayers are effective) Can always use more praer cover!
All the best.
