Not really piecing and trying not to jinx it, but

Nothing much to really update--this is a good thing though!

I am feeling much more secure with "us". I don't start freaking out if I don't hear from him first or keep a tally of who is contacting who how often anymore. He still talks a lot about doing this or that to my/our house. He has lots of big plans which also include rehabbing an old farmer's Grange building that is adjacent to my house into a few apartments for "our retirement"...

Last weekend he referred to himself as being "my man". I've been on a list for 4 years for a grant for some weatherization help with my house. Well, I'm finally at the top of the list so there have been some guys here this week doing some insulating and other stuff and H asked me yesterday if any of them hit on me---the jealousy is nice.

Still waiting for an ILY though, dammit! Only somewhat serious about that though. I know with 100% certainty he does love me and that is what matters--not the words.

Oh, this year is his parents 50th anniversary. He mentioned to me a few weeks back they were having a party. Last night his mom told me/(invited) about it too and it's going to be pretty large. I won't go unless he specifically invites me to go with him though. For those that don't commit every minute detail of my life to memory, we married on his parent's anniversary so it would be our anniversary also (11th if you ignore that meaningless piece of paper from Jan. that said we're divorced now). It'll be interesting how this plays out... It's not till the beginning of June though so we have a couple months yet.
