Suddenly Separated in VA -- need your help

[mimivac]

Thanks for the encouragement, guys. Things continue to go well, although I still have some free-floating anxiety issues. Yesterday I got a call from H at work that highlighted two things about how I'm doing: 1) I am still pretty far from really detached; 2) I am doing OK, nonetheless. He sounded pretty depressed on the phone and said he didn't know why he was calling me and that he was all "doom and gloom." I sympathized. When he asked what I had been up to, I cheerfully told him about this documentary I had watched the other night about bees. And the thing was, I wasn't acting "as if" -- I really was cheerful about it. However, I was also a little too happy that he was depressed. I couldn't help but to wonder (and hope) if it was because he missed me. He said that he would be by later in the day to pick up his belts and I got a bit excited about that. But, I was hardly depressed when he never showed up or called. So, a little progress here and little progress there.

Inch by inch. MC today
