So great that you have a supportive husband. Sometimes meetings have a similar effect on me. Occasionally I feel that stories and such make me want to go back out even more, but I try to focus on the things I hear that keep me sober. I actually keep a list (on my phone) of little quotes that I hear in the meetings that I like that help me. Some of the ones I have written down recently:

This isn't worth losing my sobriety over
Examine my motives
We are the makers of our own misery
Focusing on staying sober today

Anyway I like it cause it gives me something to listen for during meetings and allows me something to look back on later when I'm struggling. Stay strong, even only at day 9 I feel worlds better.
