Been a while since I have posted here. Things have been kinda busy lately, which I think has helped keep me sane and moving forward. This past weekend I spent a lot of time at the fire house, went to a friend's party, and hung out with my brother. I actually just got voted on to my volunteer fire department's board of directors, so that is another thing that should help me with GAL'ing.

Even with my so much going on, I still find myself missing her an awful lot. I had thought that with time it would get easier, but so far it hasn't, and although it has only been one month, I sometimes find myself wondering if it will get easier. But I try to kick myself everytime I think that, and realize that one way or another I'll get through this. I see an IC for the first time tomorrow, so hopefully that will help as well.

As far as contact, I haven't seen my W for three weeks now. In that time, I haven't initiated any contact, except for a quick Happy 4th text. When she has contacted me, all for logistical things, I've tried to keep it short and light.

My MIL called me the other night. She'll be in town visiting W in late August, and wants to have dinner at my house with me while she's here. It will be good to see her. I am really glad that throughout all of this, my in-laws still want to be in contact with me. I really like them, and knowing that they didn't just break off from me when my W left makes me feel good.
