Hey Bob, good to see you here on my thread, and thanks for the hugs.
I tend to clean a lot, so it's nothing unusual. Lighting the candles is new, but I do blow them out before bed. On Sunday, she came home while I was still up in the living room and commented on how "delicious" the house smelled before she gave me a hug and said she was sorry for hurting me, but she "couldn't help it."
Hey DifRent,
You're welcome, it's my pleasure. Thank you for clarifying about the cleaning, so fo course keep doing that.
The "couldn't help it' comment indicates to me that she is still letting her emotions take over (I see our friend Toots touched on this, too).
You are not alone about the way you felt about the thunderstorms. Being a man, it might sound "wimpy," but since my W has left I feel the same way.
Keep doing what you have been doing!
Many *Hugs* to you (save some for the next storm).
Bob
