Life can be so interesting..... Saturday morning my husband got up, came to me and said he would never ever hurt me. He loved me, he hit bottom and is going to try very hard to make things work. The kids and I were on our way out for the day.... For two days things were ok. I was still on the outside looking in, observing and waiting... HE was busy as a bee. He did more in those few days than he has done in months. My first thought was.... mania so now he is bipolar. I have to admit that the happy, busy bee is much more pleasant to live with than the other side, however, I know that things don't happen over night. Sadly, I was right. Since he didn't get "me" back, the way he wanted me to fit into his life, he stopped "trying" and fell back into mr depression. That was... ummm...three days of trying WOO Hoo!!! At least I know this person.

I tried to talk to him but ... it got us no where. At counseling, we discussed the plan of giving him space, letting him find his way through this and for me to reach out occasionally to see how many fingers I pull back in. My litmus test..... I wish I hadn't let "hope" get in there for those three days.
I know God's grace is going to get me through.
Thanks for listening.
