enjoying my picnic

I'm actually in shock! Thats astounding T..doesnt the universe work in funny ways??? Just at the very moment that yuo start a new post, finally finally saying, ok, how do I contact him, I am going to...and wham, he writed to you! Its just incredible, you must have been so shocked.

I completely agree with your assesment that his letter is above and beyond the last one and he neednt of bothered and that also, it seems that sending yuo back a key (a sort of deemed important item that you could legitametly return to someone) is perhaps a "way" of contacting you, an excuse. He could have sent it to your Mums address or something (I did this with an ex bf who I didnt want to speak to). I dont know what advice to give on responding as I am literally amazed, gobsmacked and speechless (clearly not, looking at the length of this post!). And now you have his address! Let me think..

um...suppose, try not to get too excited...dont leave it too long to reply, I'd say within a week.. I agree then that email isnt your thing and if yu dont feel comfortable with that dont bother.. dont send the book just yet (its a thoughtful present, save it for his birthday! Even if contact tails off a bit after your response now, yuo still have that up your sleeve for May).

I agree with OneDay..he ASKED yu if you are doing alright. It wasnt exactly phrased as a question, but people dont say these things if they arent subconciously inviting an answer - so tell him, keep it light and cheery and positive and all that (dont go too mad! Yuo dont want him to think you're having the time of your life since he left and embarress him into never contacting you again...he may not be doing so well himself?!)

I'm so thrilled for you. Good things come to those that wait...
