A Little Epiphany - (and a newbie delurking)

[Dia]

Here's the recipe for the stew. Leave the cayenne out of the essence if you don't like hot. Also, I use reg. sweet potatoes, chicken or beef stock instead of veal, and I omit the brunoise pepper.

So after all of that today, I find myself needing reassurance. That maybe H will decide I'm not worth all this trouble. I don't want to add a needy wife on top of his already sucky day tho, so I'm telling myself over and over to look at his ACTIONS today and let them speak for him.

1) He told his mother we were working things out. And even despite her controlling tantrum,...

2) He broke up with OW.

3) He then called the rest of his family and a few friends to tell *them* we were working things out as well. (Small town, rumor management.)

At any point in that, he could have turned to me and said, "Actually, this isn't going to work for me. Go find yourself a place." But he didn't.
