Thank you both for being so supportive and yanking me out of my hole - it doesn't happen often to me now, but I just felt overwhelmed at the tasks ahead of me!
I loved your analogy Lost, it made me laugh and feel so much better for it! It really is silly and it was also silly of me to react. I love that I can get it out of my system on here and not let H see it!
H and I had a good email exchange this morning. I emailed him to say thank you for the present and he emailed back almost straight away (a real change from the pre christmas 10 day average reply time). The present he bought me from his holiday was really thoughtful. It was little wooden calendar blocks held in a cat-shaped thing, it is really cute. I was expecting chocolate but this is really thoughtful.
The language he used in his email this morning was much more 'old h' and softer. I think it was because I showed real appreciation for his gift which I believe is one of his primary love languages. However I am aware that things are moving on with the house now, the survey is booked for tomorrow, so it could be to do with that. He sounded very excited about his job and I am really cheering him on which is what I used to do. It can't do any harm. He said he will tell me all about it when we meet which will have to be soon as the solicitor have sent through the papers for us to sign. I like the fact that he is no longer scared to meet me, as he could just send me the papers to sign.
