Thanks, Kerry. Wow, 50+ years, right now I am just hoping we are still together at Halloween (guess I am still in "baby step" mode). I am not taking anything for granted, I still do not "breathe easy" about our marriage. I feel like that is the moment when all H*LL will break loose, once I get too "comfortable". Hopefully that will change down the road when more time has passed with good developments.
Speaking of good developments. I texted H good night at 11 last night, 10 Boise time. He had said he was going out to dinner and then bed, so I didn't expect anything. I heard my phone beeping at 3:00 a.m.
H texted me a long message that he had crashed in the hotel room at 8:45 and just woken up and gotten my message....
Then 5 minutes after that my phone went off again. Just a short message this time,
"I love you too and good night".
I am a dork but I still get excited at this point whenever those words ILY are visible to me from H...Next time I am tempted to make assumptions I will just re-read that message and try, and Jeff always tell me, to BE STILL........
