Well...things are still pretty calm. I've been cordial and patient - have not been cornered for a whole week now. Last Thursday was my big 'turn-around' day where I decided that I wasn't going to live this way anymore. Ever since I told him that he really needs to find a way to give me some space - or I'm going to create space by separating....He Has Done Exactly That.
Small tiny things are almost brought up by him, but I've found the patience to not let things bubble up. Like he brought up the question if he's invited to my family's Thanksgiving next week. Uhhhh...Yeah - of Course...was my response. I knew he was fishing for more, but I didn't go there.
Don't know if that was right. I still don't have the book. I'm taking the whole day off to Christmas shop tomorrow, so I'll be getting it then. Thanks for checking in! If you're online today, would love to hear from y'all.
