Hope everyones Thanksgiving was fun and calm .
We left on WEND, H had to go to work for 3 hours before we left and as he promised he stayed in radio contact the hole time , a bit annoying but helped me !
left at noon and what can I say all was good , we had no fights , I shopped alot and he stayed with kids at cousins house helping him with some consruction work . He took kids with him if he had to leave me for any reason OR another family member . All was great no phone rang at all !
That not makes it the first holiday since he came home with NO SIGN of MISS THING !
We spent every night up late until early hours of the morning , playing cards, reading together, and just good old cuddling in bed watching TV .
Things have continued that way since sunday when we got back.
Son is sick and home from school (pneumia ) hes also go asthma so we have to waych him .
Ok thats all the update I gotr right now ,, OH wait one more thing ,,,, H found out that the city job he applied for may be calling his list # by FEBRUARY !
Pay will be hell , less then half , but NO MORE CELL PHONE , BEEPER, And never in the area of OW AGAIN !!!!
Who could ask for more then that ! I will live on the street if I had to for that security (LOL)
THERES NOTHING TO FEAR EXCEPT FEAR ITSELF!
I am trying , I am being calm , no LB'ING and less afraid when taking it slow , I think I really wanted to rush through this recovery .
Thanks all let me know how the holidays where for you all !

3, I haven't forgotten about you. No computer at home right now and extremely busy at work. Glad your Thanksgiving went well and things are still good. My Thanksgiving was wonderful as well. Was in Miami for cheer competition with Granddaughter and Daughter, then took a "too short" side trip to Key West since we were that close. H didn't go of course. (Am I guilty of independent behavior?) <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="images/icons/wink.gif" />
Any way, now I feel like I'm heading fast into a black hole ( a repeat of last year's Christmas, with all attendees, except OW is not in the picture this year) The triggers are really bad and I'm having such a time controlling my tongue.
Gotta get back to work. "See" you later. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="images/icons/smile.gif" />

Yes, me too, want to know how it is all coming along.
Had the BEST Thanksgiving. Oldest son came up with GF, GF's mom and brother. Such wonderful people and they really care for my son.
My son said Thanksgiving prayer and it was AWESOME. This from a child who hated God 3 years ago because if there was a God this he wouldn't have had such a hard life. I cannot express in words how much this meant to me. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="images/icons/smile.gif" />
So what's up? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="images/icons/smile.gif" />
Love in Christ, Miss M

Ok thanks for responding I thought you all forgot about ME <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="images/icons/shocked.gif" />
I am so happy to here everyones Thanksing was good and healthy .
Well nothing going on things are good , very good .Theres been no fights and I really have been trusting more and alot of that has to do with H , he has been doing more , I don't know how to explain it , but I shut up and he PUT up LOL .
Theres been so many things that where going in the way of triggers (ex. snow removal he use to see her & he had to go to COURT for violations for company and we all know the COURT trigger)
So with out me saying it that I was starting to have them H started COMBAT LOL . Before I knew it he was showing me and talking to me in away that I could see he KNEW that these would be triggers (never said it just took charge) Snow removal he went and kept in contact with me first by radio and then from office when he would take a break so I could see the line he called from . He also found others to do the work so he didn't stay away long in the day time on saturday. In the night he did explain he would be gone longer cause after the snow stoped they had to do the final clean up . HE again stayed in contake at one point put me on speaker just so I could listen to him shoval and chat with the guy he worked with LOL The court thing well I saw the paper work and all memos addressed to him from his boss that he was the one to go to court . Also he called boss over the wekend in front of me so I could here the convo about the violations to the company .
The greatest part is I never asked or said any of my fears out loud ! He took this all apoun himself . He did it all very normal , not ever saying that he was doing it to make me feel calm , it was just the unspoken communication that came into play it was great and I had to finnaly say something last night ,I just said thank you I love you it meant alot to me all weekend and for today with court .
He said, I am happy to make you happy . <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" />
This morning I thought alot about TRIGGERS , fear, and what normal is and recovery .
I came to understand the reason why I think recovey is so different for each of us .
If CONTACT is continued (like mine was) in your everyday life and for so long , that became my NORMAL .
So now everyday life is weird always expecting that phone to ring and him to see her.
when the contact was your life that leads to EVERYDAY TRIGGERS ! There is no just trigger on a day or a date of the month ,,the trigger for me is every movement that he did anything.
So getting back to normal life itself was a TRIGGER ! I don't know if I am explaining this well , I just understand now that there was/is no way for my H to really show me any thing else . It would be impossiable .Except for what he is already doing . I have to put OW and the A out to DIE !
His remorse is there , he is accountable very , and he is showing his love for me . WHATS done is done and he can't take it back and I can't change the way I handled things (allowing the contact for so long) .
I am going to start a new thread about this TRIGGER thing for those who have ongoing contact and how it is very hard for recovery .
Talk soon ! MM SO very happy about your son !
TO4T - independance is great , life is to short not to go to key west LOL ,And HOLD on women TRIGGERS come and go but your H is THERE !

3,
What an awesome post!! Looks like all is going well in recovery for you.
Your H is doing what a lot of BS's on this forum only dream of.
By the way have you gone to your H and said 'pinch me hon, this is great, is it really happening?' <img border="0" title="" alt="[Razz]" src="images/icons/tongue.gif" />
For your H to voluntarily do what he is doing without you asking is excellent. SO happy to hear things are going so well for you.
Keep up the good work 3, you have come so far and looks like all is well. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="images/icons/smile.gif" />
Love in Christ, Miss M
