Hello again,

It is strange because this morning I woke up so incredibly depressed. Not sure why really, maybe I feel like I let myself down a bit yesterday. Last night H and I went to see Pirates...

Side note: Everybody says it is SO long but I loved it! Hours of Johnny Depp...how could I complain?!

The night went fine we chatted a bit at the apartment and then went to the theatre. On the way there we laughed about my driving, talked about saving up for a cruise and what we did at work that day. The cruise thing came about because I mentioned that I wanted to go somewhere like Napa Valley...I meaning me. H then said he would rather we go on the Carnival cruise to Cabo...we meaning he and I. So I asked if he wanted us to start saving for that and he said yes. After the movie we grabbed some McDs and took it back to the apartment, where I feel like I was a little too huggy. Having sex a few weeks back has made holding that stuff back really hard but I was doing ok until that moment.

My post on the Piecing board has gotten a couple responses and to update: I will bring up the lease expiring to H when I feel the moment is right. H usually makes some reference to our future and I was going to use that to transition into my lease issue. Well, he said that if he got stationed somewhere like where my sister and her H were stationed that he worried I would get bored (it was Kansas, of course I would be bored but I would have my M so who the hell really cares!). I didn't feel like that was the right moment. Like the DR book says, it is about timing and doing things when spouses will be most receptive.

We were both tired from being up late the previous night for different reasons (H could not sleep and I was having this lease frustration weighing in on my thoughts). Since we both had to pay rent this paycheck, I asked if he we could go to dinner when he got paid. He quickly said yes but I hope he is not going to think I am attacking him if I use that time to ask him about the lease. I think if he thought I planned it out like that then he would get pissed, feel cornered, and not be very receptive...now I am regretting asking, in case that evening does spark the opportunity to talk!


Patience and diligence...
