2 years
Yes, today, 2 years ago, I was in shock upon discovering my wife had an affair. At this time of the morning, she didn't know I knew. Boy, what a crazy time that was. Talk about shattering one's world. Back then, 2 years down the road seemed like forever, and worse, no real idea how all this would pan out. Divorce? Unhappy marriage? Subsisting in life? All things I feared could happen.
Now, two years later, we are happy and in a good place. We talked about the state of our marriage this morning. While we are both happy and feel positive about the future, there is the worry in the back of our minds that over the next 5 to 10 years we'll slip back into old patterns, not keep up the changes we've made, and it could happen again. Maybe as long as we're worried about it, it won't happen, and dday #2 will never happen. But there is no doubt that the possibility of such is a reality, rather than a feeling it could never happen to me. I think that will always be with me, just a touch of insecurity.
On our book progress, I'd hoped to have it out by now, but am still doing final edits and getting it ready. Tried to get it to the printer this week, but that didn't happen. Will probably be next week. But we're making progress and it will be out by the end of the month I'm pretty sure. So stay tuned. Will announce something in the next two to three weeks.
Currently, we are on our 31st anniversary trip in Port Aransas, TX. Today should be fun. Hoping the rain will stay away long enough for us to walk on the beach and do a little shopping. Thanks for everyone's support. May you all find positive progress in your situations.
