hi guys,<P>I was just wondering how you two were doing with your Plan B's. I've read your latest posts, and it seems that you are having slightly different levels of success. Care to fill us all in on where you are at?<P>Personally, I would love to be in Plan B, but I can't seem to convince the W that it is in everyones best interest. Oh well, maybe soon <P>Brent

Hey Brent,<P>It seems that I am having limited success with Plan B. I have only been in it since the new year. I had only spoken to her on a need to chat basis or when she blind sides me. <P>Val called me last week and the caller ID didn't show it was the dental office. I needed to pick up her W-2's for the taxes. She wanted to file married-jointly again this year. It would save me a quite a few bucks opposed to filing separate. We had made arrangements for her to have them ready for me at her parents house the previous day. She called me the following day and said she "forgot" what the plan was. A friend of mine told me "Yeah, she forgot alright"<P>Anyway, she caught me by suprise on the phone and told me to come by the office to pick up said documents. I went in and chatted with her co workers. I have gone there for years. It was a short visit and I left with what I came for. I said "Thanks", no I love you, miss you, nothing. No attempt at a hug or a kiss. She came running out to the truck to chat some more. That's when in a weak moment I suggested the ice cream run. We had always enjoyed that. Didn't hear anything for a while, hey, no autopsy, no foul. <P>This is our fourth separation. Yep, we have had problems. Me not knowing how to be a good H. Now, I know how. I spent too much time with the damned business and neglected her. Last time around the turning point was telling her that I only loved her a little bit. I got a card almost within the hour [well not really the 60 minutes, the next day] telling me that she hoped I loved her more than that and asking to "marry me?"<P>Plan B is tough. No doubt about it. What do you want as the the end result? It is worth your time? For us, the marriage didn't go bad overnight and I don't expect that the reconsiliation will either. It means the world to me to fix this and I will wait and fight the good fight. <P>I don't know if this helped you or not. I certainly hope so. I have learned so much and only need one last chance to fix it.<P>There is always hope. I have said it before and still go by my "I will be dead two years before I give up on this" "I don't know where I'll be then, but, I'm sure I won't smell real good"<P>Feel free to E me if you like. I work strange hours so it may take a little. Moose7771@AOL.COM<P><BR>Still Wishing us all the Best.<P>Tim

Brent,<P>I don't have time noe. I'll respond later.<P>Bill<P>------------------<BR>BB<BR>
