Hello everybody,

News from the tightrope have not changed. We are still on the 26th departure schedule and he says he is going to fly through Houston because tickets are cheaper (actually I checked and they are 30% cheaper). He goes there for his day bussiness trip (paid by the company he is consulting for) and then changes his return trip for two weeks later and leaves directly from there...

I still get the pangs about whether he is lying, but without the accompanying pain the pangs are not the same...
He can lie if he wants but then he'd be choosing deception over a good chance to look at himself and clear his mind up. I am not his mother... he can do what he wants.

He brought up the account thing himself and we went yesterday to one of the banks, but I did not have my SS card with me and we'll have to go tomorrow.

He has been a bit distant, but spending a lot of time with us. He does not spoon with me as much and only cuddle for half the extended version of "The Fellowship of the Rings" yesterday, but that could be tiredness... And he still wears his ring and told me ILY this morning.

We are going to a friend's tomorrow night and I have invited another couple of friends and their kids for Xmas day. It is a great way to create only nice memories (we cannot fight in front of witnesses... and closeness at this point is kind of pointless).

I hope you guys won't mind if I stay here until the 2 weeks are over and I have some definite news one way or the other. I like you all and feel very comfortable in "Piecing"... and h*ll! the fat lady has not sung yet... and may get a sore throat for all I know

I have been very busy at work and unable to post. Trying to squeeze 4 days worth of work into 2 is not for the weak of heart... my back needs that pillow of yours Pam

I am so tired that I ramble...
