H just called to let me know he is back in the US, is grabbing lunch and will be on the way. I told him we would meet him at the airport later. Another small step with him checking in and letting me know what is going on.

I will continue to note the small steps, continue to be upbeat, continue to look good on a daily basis, continue to watch the funny TV re-runs, continue to try to hold my tongue, and will work to become the carefree, adventerous person I once was.

Mentally, I will focus on being confident in my personal life, like I am professionally, and will develop strategies to deal with my insecurities and negative thoughts about H.
