Hi there! Well, H and I haven't been alone since my tears the other night, but we have been together so my concerns about his wanting to avoid me as a result are disappating. I even joked about it with him tonight when I spoke to him after the kids said goodnight.

Four quick positives before I head off to bed:

1. H came over Friday night to start patching sheetrock by the wall that I tore down.
2. H made it back from hunting for D8's first hockey game, sat with all of us (grandparents, my brother and his girlfriend, daughter's best friend and her family), came over for pizza afterwards (cancelling plans for dinner with hunting buddies - he caught up with them later) and was last to leave.
3. H came over this morning and took D8 to hockey practice at 7 a.m. so I didn't have to wake up the boys.
4. H came over again later this morning to do a few things around here and so I could run an errand with D8 without the boys.

Now I am just looking forward to our next alone time. It has been since Wednesday night! But I will keep practicing patience - patience - patience!

I keep on praying that we will be together soon for the next part of our journey.

On a personal note, my back is killing me still from moving furniture last week (or maybe it is from all of the alone time activities ). But I found out that my neighbor is in school to become a massage therapist and needs to practice for 500 hours! She is coming over tomorrow afternoon - what luck!
