Piecing - Round 1

[Denver_2010]

"Am I doing alright by you?"

Is a question I ask her about once a week.

She usually repeats the question back to me...

Then we fight about sex. : )

LOL! That is all good advice Jack. I'm going to use this. And yeah, I'm going to talk to her about what has been going on in my head the past couple of weeks. Friday night. And in a nice way

Funny you mention coming across those emails. I was helping SS with a project on W's computer the other night. He had to go to bed, but I kept working.

The computer was logged onto his account, not W's. But I started looking at some stuff that he has saved. Found 1 thing with OM. A stupid video of W, SS and OM eating lunch. SS had taken the video. It was only about 1 minute long and there was nothing bad on it. Other than W and OM sitting next to each other.

I deleted the video.

I was upset for about 24 hours over that. Ridiculous.

Quick update...

I make a habit of taking a starbucks coffee to my W while she is teaching about once every 2 or 3 weeks. I try to surprise her and just make her day a bit easier. Yesterday was one of those days. I walked into her class and took the coffee over to her desk. She was in the middle of collecting some papers from her students.

Her students recognized me. One of them said, "dang Ms. W, you are lucky to have a H like that." Made me feel good.

W said in a joking way "I think that he's lucky to have me"...

I wish that she had agreed with the student, but I'm not surprsed that she didn't. She doesn't seem to want to say things that might make me a little too proud of myself. Kind of bothersome, and I'm not sure that I understand it.

Last night was better. At dinner I used a modified version of what Anotherstander suggested yesterday. W, SS and I were eating dinner at the table. I asked W what the best part of her day was, then SS said his (getting to come home from school), then asked her what the worst part was. She asked me the same. It was a good conversation starter.

W and I watched the Voice in bed before going to sleep.

Still some distance, but a bit better.
