Hey guys. Day two of painting kitchen. Yes, it is bright, but cheerful. White trim, white cabinets. I am trying to focus on one room at a time in order to not get overwhelmed. Previous owners had redone kitchen with 3 vinyl/roll out windows, making of bank of windows of about 90 inches. That will be the big purchase. I am so tempted to do Plantation shutters. The depth is there, but I don't want to overwhelm the room .
Did go out to dinner last night, but just locally. Had a wonderful steak dinner. Rented two movies and went back to his house to watch them. Kiss at midnight and home by 12:30 A.M. What a wild woman I am.
My sleep patterns continue to improve, TG. I am still bothered by some old memories and such, but overall, have found myself smiling at them more recently than frowning. I know that No contact is Good contact with Xh, but truth is, I do still miss him. Don't know when that particular feeling will go away. I find I am also somewhat bothered by the fact that, financially, I have to remain single for the rest of my life, in order to continue with the benefits I have been awarded. Now, that doesn't mean that I'd spit in the face of true love, but, it does mean I have to give serious consideration to my continued security. I'm not a spring chicken, anymore. Oh yes, I know that doesn't mean I couldn't have a wonderful companion sort of relationship, marriage is just a piece of paper, who needs it, etc., etc. Just sayin' that on some inner, puritanical level, usually accompanied by the voice of my Mother, it bothers me.
