This will be the first time that she has been at the house in six weeks and the first time that we've been here together since she left.

There were some positives and I definitely kept my cool though.

but I settled for the fact that she let her feet touch me.

Quote:
She did give me a hug and thanked me a couple times for letting her come see the dogs (even though they were outside most of the time). When she was saying goodbye to them, she told them that she would see them again soon.

Quote:
I think that she would have spent more time here if she could have. She originally wanted to come over at 2,

Overall, I think that this was a positive time and I think that she'll want to do it again.


6 positive things!!! And I wasn't even there! Remember...think small. I think you were probably as detatched as you needed to be in front of her. It's inside that you're all torn up and that sounds normal to me. I would give anything for even one of the 6 things you listed above right now and you probably would have too just a few weeks ago.
Don't get too down, so you set your expectations high this time...next time set some smaller goals and keep banking these little positives. They all add up.
