Another one joins the flock (Part II)

[Mike85]

Watched some of the Bills-Skins preseason game (I'm jonesin' for football big time...), then put the kids to bed. Had some time to reflect on the events of the last two days.

Oh - and I texted wife at 6 pm, as I told her I would, just to see if she was OK. All I asked was if she was OK and if she was at least with friends in any event. She answered yes to both. I text-replied "Good," told her that if she needed anything to get a hold of me, and that I'd see her on Monday (when she normally pick the kids up for the day). All very low key. Unless she contacts me, I don't plan to contact her 'til Monday.

Sitting here now, going over the last two days, I'm convinced that God answered my prayers. He gave me a chance to see if I could walk the talk. As much as I loved being with W, I knew that (as Jack warned), I had to be cautious. Keeping silent and just listening at times was difficult. Looking back on the things I said and did, the choices I made in how we spent our time... I think I did OK. I think my telling her that my love for her was "unconditional and forever" made a definite impact.

All I can do now is be patient and gradually build upon the opportunity I was given this weekend.

I've said it before, and I'll say it again - there's NO WAY that I could have gotten this far without the advice and support of the folks here. Thanks.
