You are doing so well Raine, amazingly well. I'm glad to hear you and your H are becoming friends again, and comfortable around each other.
I get what you mean about "having a hard time as well keeping my convo in check." My H has such long periods of appearing to be his old normal self. You put it perfectly: "Too many things are feeling normal and comfortable" I have to keep reminding myself to do as you do, and just let hm talk, and reply to what he says. Too much initiating of conversation on my part causes him to shut down, and he's more apt to walk away than to reply.
Snodderly, your advice to Raine was so helpful to me too. Thanks.
How is the baby doing with the heat?
