Hey Sep

Yes we did have a great day yesterday! Corn maze is one of my favorite traditions and this year was really fun. Caramel apples, BBQ, getting hopelessly lost! Lol.

He came over around noon and we went out to run some errands and we had lunch. A little R talk sprinkled here and there but not really, mostly about the house situation. He was telling me all this stuff about how he is thinking of spending his enlistment money. . .Which kinda pissed me off because WE were supposed to pay off OUR debt and then put the rest in OUR savings account. However now he is talking about visiting his brother in texas, going to Europe, and buying some video game thing. Argh! I reminded him (nicely) of our previous plan and he said "I know" whatever that means. I also pointed out that it would be more practical to buy a car for him since mine is almost paid off. He has a car of course but it is a POS that doesn't even have air bags!!! Anyways it wasn't a fun convo but it didn't get tense or anything. I was just tense. But he was going on and on and on. Lol. I just have to remind myself that most likely none of his plans will actually happen and he is just talking, he does that from time to time. I just kept thinking "what about living together?" if he is jetsetting around Europe where do I fit in? Oh well. No need to stress about it now since it hasn't even happened yet.

So anyways we came home messed around in bed for awhile but had to get ready to leave for corn maze. So we left and it took about an hour to drive out there and we did all the corn maze festivities. Hubby and I got along really well and we had a really good time. My sister and her boyfriend came with us too and that's always fun. we're a goofy group.

So we were there for like 4 or 5 hours and then drove the hour home so it was pretty late. We ML and then watched part of a movie and then I went off to get ready for bed and when I came back to the living room my hubby was asleep. So I sent him home. When he was leaving I said "Love you" without really even thinking about it. He was sleepy and mumbled something before shutting my door. So who knows. I guess I broke the LRT rule but I don't feel LRT anymore anyways. I just hope that when he leaves he will say it back. That's my mini goal.

Another mini goal that was reached was that he brought me a present. I had that on one of my original goal sheets that he would bring me a present just to say "I love you" and he did yesterday. It's the cutest rubber ducky bank. I am a smidge in love with rubber ducks so it's this ceramic rubber duck with a money slot. So cute. And sweet.

Sigh.

Well today he is busy getting ready to leave so I don't imagine we will talk much other than to sort out the details of tomorrow. Then I have one last day with him. . .

Things are going so well right now. It would be easier to say goodbye if we were still tense but something has definatly shifted and we are getting along so well. I don't want to say goodbye. I know it will probably be a good thing in the long run and a month is not that long in the grand scheme of things but it still hurts. I'm just hoping that it will give him a lot of time to think things over and realize that I am the one he wants to call at the end of a long day or that I am the one who will be there if things get off track. I always have been and I always will be.
