Wow, I haven't been on here for so long I had no idea what these message icons were. I've wondered about many of you, but have kept away from the board because I tend to dwell too much on H's affair rather than the recovery when I'm on here often. However, I received email from one of you telling me about Glen. I just can't believe it. I've never met them, I don't know what had been happening in the past few months, and yet I feel like I knew them. Carol, if you see this, I'm so sorry for your loss. I wish I could express that more originally, but I'm at a loss for words. Please just take care of yourself and your family. We'll all pray for you.<P>Since I'm here, I wanted to let you all know how my H and I are doing. I hope there are a few of you out there that remember us. There are a lot of new faces. We are doing well. The OW has stopped contacting us. I still have a hard time sometimes, but I can get through an hour without thinking about it. We passed the one year mark on Oct. 5. I was so proud of myself. I did great! It didn't seem any different than any other day. One more hurdle cleared.<P>We are getting very excited for our baby to come. When I first found out I was pregnant, I thought it was the worst thing that could've happened to us considering what we were going through. Then I felt guilty for feeling that way. Now, I know that it is a wonderful gift in our year of hell, and we will treasure it. It is nice to have something to feel happy about. I am 7 months along now. Getting quite a little belly on me! [Linked Image from marriagebuilders.com] Everything has gone great, no troubles. We don't know what it is, it'll be a surprise. I'm looking forward to a happy surprise for once. <P>H is doing well. He is busy coaching girls basketball, and in the middle of tournament action right now. It is lots of fun, but I'm worn out and will be glad when the season is done.<P>This is long enough. I don't want to deter anyone from reading. I hope to hear from some of you. This forum was what saved me. Take care, all!<BR>Kris<BR>

Hi, Kris,<P>Boy, e.s.p. - I was just wondering yesterday about you & thinking I'd post a "how are you?" thread. So I was glad to see your update!! I think you were the first person I ever posted to (about EMDR - was that you??).<P>Glad things are going well for you two. We just passed our 1-yr mark too. Things couldn't be better here.<P>Be sure to tell us when your baby is born. Looks like you'll have an interesting Christmas! My first was born Dec 30 - I spent that xmas having mini-contractions & *waiting*... it was fun!<P>Hugs to all "three" of you [Linked Image from marriagebuilders.com] - Suse

Kris - <BR>Is the one year mark you and a few others are referring to a year since the beginning of Plan B or a year since you discovered the affair? I'm hoping it's the latter - I'm at the 6 month mark (only 2 months of Plan B so far).<P>Congratulations and God Bless.
