So this morning she was very tired (long, hard 10 days for her at work) and consequently she was quiet.

I found it interesting that I find myself thinking she is quiet for "other reasons".

I have to force myself to think of the positives that have just happened. For instance, when she moved out in December, she had to give up her parking spot in our building. Well, last week she put up a notice in the lobby requesting to rent one from any other residents who might have one available. Last night a fellow called, and she answered. Turns out he has a spot available. How long will she need it, he asks. "Oh, as long as my husband and I live here", she said, "probably a few months at least" (we might sell after the summer). I was sitting right beside her. I smiled inside when she said that. She could have said, let's just pay month-by-month. So that's a positive.

Over the years I have not been much of a kisser. Recently, I have changed my tune, and I really enjoy it now. So, I leaned over and kissed her very softly last night for no reason...she smiled and said "where have you been all this time?"

Also, she said ILY when I left for work this morning.

I need to realize that coming back to the marriage took a ton of courage for her - she had given up on us. I hadn't. Therefore, I need to take things R E A L L Y - R E A L L Y - S L O W L Y.....
