Thanks to all of you who continue to offer your words of wisdom and support. It truly does mean a lot to me. Positive Grattitude coming each of your ways!!!
Mini journal Since the last update, I continue to want the "normal" back too. I'm faking it some and making it the rest. Exercise is soooo hopeful. At her request, I had sent her a text with their cell phone numbers, along with an a return, "I'm impressed" with her facing her fears.She informed me that she didn't have a chance to call either IC yesterday. Cool, no pressure (didn't ask anything). We have been playing that Draw app game. I know she's plays it with others, but it's nice that she has recently begun to add little comments (nothing flirty or anything, just lighthearted comments). Last night I was assembling furniture from IKEA, she didnt' expect me to, and as she walked by with D11, I made a playful / flirty comment about her hair. She asked if I was flirting with her, and I responded, "No, I wouldn't do that." She and D11 giggled in a positive way about how they think I like to flirt with her. This morning, she texted to let me know she and D2 were awake (I left without waking anyone up), and then she called to share the plans for her and the kids today, including asking if I'd prefer for them to wait to buy Halloween costumes. I said yes, and thanked her (Halloween is one of my fav holidays), and she responded "It's one of our things to do." I ended the call before her, she added in "take care." Normally it's just a "bye."
So she's continuing to come around a little. I just need to keep myself in check as there is still an OM (at least in some form) and a long way to go......
