Quote: She gave you a wealth of information to work with. Do you have a game plan now that she's done that?
I plan to use some time this weekend to review my goals, progress, and plans, BUT I could definitely use input. I posted over on Wiley's thread asking him to come over and take a look. If anyone else has any general advice or pointers I should consider in my planning session, try to let me know soon.
Nitaf, I will try to stop by your thread soon.
INTERESTING UPDATE...
Soooo, then there's last night...
I come home from work intending to change clothes quickly and go for a run in the park since the weather is so nice. W is home in her pj's over the steamer because her sinsues are clogged. She is friendly and chatty, but obviously in a little bit of pain. We talk for a few, I change and dash off. She is in bed when I return so I let her alone for a little while. When she gets up we hang for a bit, her showing me the gifts she got that we are giving to her niece and nephew for their Bdays. W thinks she wants to go to the gym before dinner, but is also tired and not sure she should go. She vascillates several times between the two choices--literally walking back and forth in the hallway between the bedroom and the closet each time she changes her mind. This makes me smile to no end. She finally decides on going.
When she returns we eat dinner and watch TV. She is very warm and friendly. This is very different from her behavior in the morning when she appeared to be avoiding me. At one point we are out on the porch talking and I realize I'm in the process of sharing my feelings again and she's listening very pleasantly but also has a sort of TMI look going on. I stop and apologize and say I should wear a little blinking red light to let me know when I'm opening up too much. She laughs a little and says lets go back inside and watch TV.
Back out on the porch again later we hear our neighbor playing some music which we both like. I ask him who it is and tell W I'll get it for her tomorrow for her Friday drive (and I do pick it for her up at lunch today). Then we are talking about a CD of hers that skips a little that she wants ot replace. I say well let me have the one that skips because the songs on it that I like don't skip. She says, "What?!? Ohmigosh, you like said CD?" She is pokes at fun me then because this is a musician I used to make fun of her for listening to over and over, and used to complain about. I say well yes, I like tracks so and so, would you like to go in and listen to them? She agrees. We go in and while I am putting on the CD she lies down on the couch. I come over and ask if she can make room for me and she says, "No," then moves over and makes room for me, and says, "you asked." I remember clearly now an instance in MC where she said she doesn't always like to be asked, she expects me to know. And I remember we had talked just a few days ago about how when we met she was obviously interested in me but didn't pursue me because she wanted me to do the pursuing. I can't read her mind on where she is with things these days, and I know how bad pursual can be when you're DBing, so this makes my sitch even more complicated--but better at the same time?
I lay down on the couch and we are lying opposite each other with her feet up on my shoulders just like last week. She and I are singing along to the music with each other, tapping out rhythms, I massaging her feet. AND, occasionally she looks right at me while she is singing the lyrics--of what are mostly love songs! WOW. I am beside myself with glee and working overtime not to let too much of it show. After we finish listening to the CD we both agree that we are tired and decide to go to bed.
Up and down and up and down and up the roller coaster goes.
...post scriptum...
for those of you who may be interested in the soundtrack to Renew's soap opera...
the CD we were listening to was Jewel's 0304 tracks 5 & 6 plus a few others.
some of the the CD's I bought today were Elliott Smith, (the new) Zero7, and Belle & Sebastian.
Other pertinent listening includes Dido, the Shins, Garbage, Thievery Corporation, The Flaming Lips, New Order, Butterfly Boucher, and Thomas Tallis' Spem in Alium.
WOW. I am beside myself with glee and working overtime not to let too much of it show. After we finish listening to the CD we both agree that we are tired and decide to go to bed.
