bruce, you have reached nirvana - detachment from all earthly things. I can only imagine how trying it was not to dial back or lift the phone. but your strength lies in the fact that you hear the rings, refusing to lift it up but at the same time telling yourself that you love her. i know how hard it is and i am delighted to see the progress in you.
have fun decorating the new place. but i am sure you will also return the call when you know its time.
