Here we go 'round in circles...

Thanks Jeff. I'd love to hear what you had to say...but I trust you'll step in if you think I've gone nutso.

Nikki...ahh...well, H's work has intensified like nobody's business. He's trying. Weakly, but probably as good as he really can right now.

I've decided one thing I really need to do in order to be fair is look for the ways H *is* expressing his love. He is a big acts of service guy...and he's doing that in abundance. I don't quite know how to get him to understand that while I appreciate those things, they don't fill my love tank at all. I'm glad he cleans the kitty litter and picks dinner up; unfortunately, I'd be happier with a box full of cat turds and eat rice cakes if he'd snuggle up and say ILY more often.

I don't think it's meanness. I think it's a lack of understanding. I'm speaking HIS language, so he thinks all is well...so, well, just bleh.

Life is good though. I'm busy as hell and loving every minute with my students. I've been pushing my teaching boundaries and, I think, am really the best I've ever been at my job with no increased workload. Good stuff!
