And the TALK...well, yes some scary sentiments voiced by your H...but you are SOOOO right to recognize that he is SHARING with you some deep, scary feelings and yes, that IS real intimacy.
SB...can you keep reminding me of this????
Glad to hear that all is well in Shinyville!!!!
*************** I realized that I've been slacking on posting the positives. That was something that really WORKED so let's get back to it! Yesterday and this morning were chock full of 'em!!!
1. h spent the entire day putting together two new desks for our home office AND organizing the office AND cleaning AND .... when I got home from work the office had been TRANSFORMED into a beautiful, comfortable, organized, clean work area for both of us!!!
2. h listened enthusiastically to me raving over my work sitch. Yesterday was my first day back in 2.5 weeks and within 30 minutes of getting here I was having heart palpitations and a mini anxiety attack...I've known in my heart for a long time that this place is no longer for me...and now I'm totally committed to doing something about it. I'm going to figure out how to get a job or internship in the area of non-profit management....my target goal is 5-6 months. PLUS...h loaded my new "resume" sw (which he gave me for xmas) on our computer!
3. we went out for drinks and dinner then came home and watched tv. h usually sits in the recliner (I'm on the couch) but last night he sat with me on the couch so we could SNUGGLE!!! I really, really love it!
Today:
1. I lost 2 lbs since last week....1st NY's goal achieved! 2. I went to the gym and when I got back h had coffee brewing! (He hates coffee so this is even bigger!) 3....heck, it's not even 10am here! Plenty of time for lots more positives for today!!!
