We dropped the kids off w/ my parents and went to dinner together tonight.

Nothing about it was super date-like, but it was the first time in FOREVER that we've gone to dinner, just us two. Also, she didn't pull back after that this evening, she continued to be pleasant and friendly.

We still haven't hugged or kissed or anything like that and she hasn't openly stated that she's ready to get to work on this marriage, but it feels like it's close right now.

Still together(ish)
Not giving up: 7/14
D talk has slowed, a lot.
Gradually working on things together. Still separate bedrooms.
Slow and Steady wins the race.
