Literally....what HIT him. ;\)

You know, I am normally 'on guard' when H is around, not really wanting to make conversation. But he found me, outside on the patio and brought up a possible schedule change for work. That started the talk, then he just kept going.

Last summer, when we would spend time together, I would watch him while he was talking and think "God, work on us! Stop seeing OW!" while I was pretending to listen. I couldn't even focus. Last night, I was just listening. No inner voices screaming.
