Things are still very good, with a few slight ups & downs. I find that she is sometimes quiet, and I keep assuming she is thinking of "us" in a negative way. I think that is because, although I try really hard, I keep thinking a shoe is about to drop. I know that it is simply a matter of trust and it will take time to come back.

This morning, she slid over to my side of the bed and cuddled up to me, so I put my arm around her. We laid that way for about 20 minutes, and it was so nice.

Then we kissed very nicely for a couple of minutes, which was awesome...initiated by her, BTW.

So, the "good signs" are there, the "bad signs" are few and far between, and things are mostly going well.

It is interesting that she is not wearing her ring, although I suspect it is because it is the only piece of gold jewelry she owns...everything else is silver or white gold. I'm not too fussed about it, I'll wait a few weeks before mentioning. A marathon, not a sprint, remember?? ;-)
