Piecing with PATIENCE

[totite]

Thanks everyone for the warm welcome to piecing. I know that this is where I belong. I read many of your threads but don't always post as I am learning from all of you and don't always have anything to add. I will offer encouragement and support though.

Well, I told Opt that I was going to post three positives so far the past few days, here goes:

1. H called Monday morning in between meetings to find out if I wanted to play Halloween. [I didn't know he was going to call but I surprised him too since I had gone out and purchased bunny ears, tail and bow tie for some future fun. Paired it with some a white lace bustier and voila'.]
2. When H picked up kids for Tuesday night visit he didn't rush in and out as usual.
3. Last night, when kids called H to say goodnight I mentioned that my shoulders were too sore to lift my arms because I had finished painting both of the boys bedrooms. Later he called and asked if I wanted a neckrub. He came over and gave me one and then stayed for a while to watch TV and .

Do you sense a pattern here?

Well, I am all for keeping the great parts of our relationship healthy . Besides, who would have thunk it that we would be having such fun after the kids are in bed? We have been lucky so far that none of them have woken up and wondered around.

So I continue to wait patiently for some sign that H is considering moving home. In the meantime, I continue to work on my goal of decorating and decluttering our house. This gives me a great sense of accomplishment and speaks volumes in one of my H's LL.

I'll need your help in the next few weeks as our anniversary approaches - November 23. I don't want to get my hopes up that he will be home by then althought that would be the ultimate. I am planning to wait until closer to the day but am planning to ask him if we can do something together to mark the occassion.

So PATIENCE, PATIENCE, PATIENCE.....
