My husband and I are working things out.

He has met my conditions, but neither one of us are ready to move back in together.

We're taking it slow.

We talk everyday on the telephone, and I see him every other day. We also have been either going out together every other weekend or doing family time.

Last Saturday we took Brooklyn fishing, it was fun, I caught my first fish ever!!! (It was just a blue gill, but I was happy)

We are getting along great, and we are tenatively going to move back in together around September or October.

Just wanted to give you an update.

I'm fine......whether this works or not, I'd prefer for it to work.

God Bless All,


-Caren

Good job girl. I told you if you settled down and just let go of this thing, it might come back to you. Stay the course!

Thank you so much all. I just had to take a break from MB, it was really starting to stress me out.

But I plan on coming back, so I can be of some assistance to others who are in the shoes I was in when I first came here.......desperate.

Thank you all so much for your guidance.

Well, better get ready for church <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
