    • About Me

      48 y-o Preschool teacher. Learning to accept what I can not change....and trying to live my life and be FUN again. Been married to my CG spouse for a little over a year....finally accepting that I can not make my H be totally honest with me, and I can not wish him into not gambling. He has to figure it out for himself! I see him taking steps to stop...but trying is not doing. So...I'm here seeking support and to learn more from CG's who post in here.

    • Interests

      Gardening, bird-watching (no really....I became a bird Geek in Garden Club when I was a kid), weight-lifting when I am into it, drawing, and writing. I love to read voraciously but in spurts. Am taking up golf to keep up with my husband (who will say he's not great but he shoots a 78 without even trying too hard.)

      just wanted to see how things were going?How is school going?You might love your job with the little ones.It's a great age.How's the hubby doing?I started therapy with my husband.It's working ..I just hope that he doesn't do this again only because I will not go through this again.I have forgiven him several times and he has to know I can't do this .Plus I have my son on top of all of this as well.Well drop a line once in awhile would love to hear from you .

    • Well Done

      From drap August 13

      you are a better person then I.It takes alot for you not to go through his stuff.I'm always going thur my son's stuff so much that he is planning on getting his own place.I need to get into therapy.I can't help it when something doesn't seem right I run with it .Same with my husband I'm still unsure about him .Somedays I wonder if we will make it not only do we have the issue with my son but I also have a trust issue with my husband.I hope in time I can trust my son and husband but it scares me to think maybe I can't.Taking one day at a time...football season is coming up and that worries me....glad to hear your looking towards going back to school.the summer was very lame this yr weather was awful.....I feel as though my summer was spent working no fun...we always take a family vaca but didn't happen..
