Wow, sounds like your H has been waiting to hear from you and wanting to make plans for the work in the basement next week?
It's interesting you say that he was waiting to hear from me. It's interesting to note that my email (which consisted of an email exchange over a couple of weeks with the boys), covered quite a few topics - boys promising to email me before V-day, boys hoping I have a nice "festival", me telling the boys about the driveway "miracle", me attaching a picture taken at a work event, me bringing up that he reminded me twive about the basement and me saying to just let me know what suits him (in terms of his schedule).

BTW, did you book a vacation yet?
What a coincidence you asked! I JUST booked it last night. I am going to that place - really looking forward to 1 week of it.

My cousin has the same dog as you and she told me she has to put him down. It's so sad and made me think about you today.
Oh, so sad. Why did he have to be put down? It's sweet of you to think of me and of my dog who passed away. You know, my baby's 1st anniversary of being gone is exactly 2 weeks away. I think I am going to email about it on that day to remind my H.
BTW, V-Day is also a very significant day to me for another reason. This year, V-Day will be my 7th anniversary of my cancer survival. I am thinking of celebrating it somehow - maybe go out to lunch with a friend. If not, I'll go out by myself.
Yesterday, it was nice going out to lunch with some co-workers to celebrate a festival. Today, met up with a group of former co-workers. We had some good laughs. Tonight, I went to the dance studio for ballroom night. I had to force myself to go because it seemed such an effort to drive there and walk around in the snow. BUT, I had an awesome time there. It was Tango lesson tonight - nice dance. Also danced Rumba, Cha Cha, Waltz, Fox Trot, East Coast Swing, Lindy Hop.
Hope all is well with you too. Hope you got in to your singing class. Hugs, PH
My H was later than usual. I sent him a VM to ask if he was still planning on coming over. H: Just gotoff the train in <my town>. Do you want to still do tonight? It's up to you. Me: Sure. H: I'll be there in half an hour. Me: Oh, you don't have to stop to get a bite to eat. I cooked something you something you can eat. H: Great.
As we sat down to eat, he thanked me for dinner. He never used to thank me when I cooked a meal, something that hurt me deeply. I was touched by his thanks this time.
Steelers, he loved what I cooked him. It was a spicy marinated beef roast I got from a store. I put it in a slow cooker so it was all ready when I got home. He even asked how I cooked it and insisted I showed him the packaging (because he wanted to get it). I told him he could take the rest of cooked meat with him. He was thrilled.
Anyway, he took his time working on the basement. It was great team effort. When we were done, I asked if he wanted a back massage. He said he wanted a neck massage.
So he got a very long neck and back massage. He was in NO hurry to leave, unusual because he used to say he had to leave to get up early for work.
Anyway, we had a good "together" time after that. He fell asleep at 11:30pm. I let him sleep and did some work until 2am. ------- BTW, while working on the basement, I told him I was going on vacation and he asked why I picked the destination. Me: I heard people say good things about it. H: I tell everyone that our cruise was the best time I ever had. Me: I know. . . Me: My sister has been pestering that I should go on a vacation. H: She's looking out for you. Me: Yes, she wants me to relax. . . During his back massage, we talked about watching movies and DVDs. Me: Last weekend, I saw a wonderful movie "P.S. I Love You". I cried the whole time. H: I remember how you'd cry watching "Below Zero". I was thinking you might like the movie "Puppies" but not sure. Me: Is it on now? H: It's coming, I think. Me: I might like it. Me: I need to order some more DVDs. H: I used to love watching those DVDs with you. Me: Did you really? H: Yes. Me: Would you like to watch them with me sometime? H: That would be nice. ...
I have been told that it is very hard to keep up with people that have several threads running at the same time in different forums. I have found that Newcomers is the best place to receive responses and help you figure out what forum you need to place your thread. However, you can post anywhere on the board. That is what I like about it....you can go into any of the forums and reply to others. Just keep updates in your own thread.

It is not about what you feel should work in your M. It is about doing the work that gets the right results. Do what works!
Sandi, Actually, I am not using this thread anymore. This is here by mistake - something happened after my thread got moved and some of the pages got lost. When they were retrieved, the pages ended up in this forum in a "ghost" thread with the same name. So please use my other thread (link to it is in my signature). -PH
