Heather,
I knew that by telling him that you would be working behind closed doors would get to him Notice how the temptation to keep knocking happened? That's why I encouraged you not to hide away, but to continue on w/your tasks and getting your roof covered. Continuing to do the work around you home let's him actually see that life does go on and doesn't stop and stay in one place.

He's got a lot to think about and hopefully realize that he's missing out on a lot of stuff.

I'm glad you opted to come out of your room and do things. There's absolutely no reason to stay behind closed doors in your own home when you know you have a lot to do and can do when he's there. You accomplished more than you realize today.


Sit quietly, the answers will reveal themselves when you least expect them to.
The past is gone, the present is a gift and you need to focus on today, allow the future to reveal itself when it is ready.
