Taking the long weekend to try to get my act together.

Thought I might hear from W this last week, but she has gone NC. She left almost three weeks ago, which I know is a very small amount of time relative to others on this site, but time has been dragging very slowly for me. I am not sitting here pining away for her return, but I do wake up every day to the mantra that she isn't coming back. Not sure that is healthy or not.

I am somewhat flabbergasted that my partner of 20 years can just eradicate me from her life. I wouldn't be able to do that to her. Maybe that is my problem.

I am holding true to giving her time and space to sort out her demons. Just hope I don't grow a whole bunch of my own demons in the meantime!

Knee is getting better, so I am looking forward to diving into some physical GAL activity sometime this week. Need to take it slow so I don't reinjure. Physical activity will help me immensely.
