Denver,

I like your style. The card trick was very good!

It is a stroke of luck that Gram died right now. Or maybe she planned it that way. Nothing like a funeral to pull people together and remember the importance of family. i'm not kidding! And you are handling it beautifully by being supportive and letting your wife and MIL come first before your business.

Maybe you could find some time while in NY to visit Niagara Falls, or some other nice weekend getaway with your wife. Something that will replace the memories of nice OM with nice Denver. You don't have to battle OM. You have to win your wife. He will fade from her mind and her heart if you are in both places.

Don't gloat.

You know how to kill a vampire?

Stake in the heart, cut the head off, fill the mouth with Holy Communion, Burn the body, gather the ashes and drop them into a body of running water.

Stake in the heart isn't the time to gloat.

I want you to consider this.

Your W said that OM was going to back off while you both figured this out.

Don't trust this guy to play nice and follow rules.

Cause they guy who decked out your wife's place on Valentines Day, ain't the guy giving her space while she figures this out.

Be mindful, and if you underestimate your enemy, it will cost you.

Denver, this is sooooooooooooooo awesome!!! I'm so proud of you, sweetie.

Ok, OM is going to be VERY, VERY dangerous right now. It is of paramount importance that you play your hand like there is a billion dollar pot at stake. You can do or say things that can draw your W in or do or say things that will send her back to OM. This time, though, he'll have the heat turned up.

So... you know that impatience thing that comes up sometimes? Don't let it burn you. (I probably should take my own advice). This is not a straight line back (see Bolt) and a few stumbling blocks will litter your path you along the way. Watch out for them. You want your W and your M. Remember that. Even during the frustrating times, you want your W and you want your M...

Did I mention how proud I am of you and how happy I am for you!!!

I'm praying for you.

Question for you Denver, at what point did you make the switch? It seems like you are back to a point where you are showing interest, even pursuing. What triggered that change of action?

How about Larry Level?

You have heard of the term "rollercoaster" around here?

I hope you have, the emotional ups and downs of being an LBS.

The biggest downs, come after a rise of good expectations.

Up, up, up, up, up....Dooooooooooooooooooooooooown.

Lower than low, and most people struggle to climb back up again and wonder why they are even bothering. And alot of those are from our own making.

I am not saying that's the case here, not at all. It all seems great.

You level out that rollercoaster, you level out your expectations? The roller coaster is just a train ride, with some dips and crests.

That was all man.

Yikes....

It seems to be so hard to level everything , not just the downs.... because our lives are so down already that when we have a high it seems so much sweeter, so much higher...

I never thought for example that a phone call from H would send me into a tizzy. I think the last time I felt that way was when I was 16.

Lessons, lessons.....
