Thank you for the good Morning Pattie!!

I had a good weekend.

Saturday, Husband and Little Brother arrived.

We had a great time. I talked Husband's ear off. When he first came home Little Brother immediately set up his X-box. Husband went out to the pool and started fussing around.

So, I left Little Brother to himself and joined Husband at the pool and talked and talked and talked.

Boy I needed that!

I updated him on all the stuff going on at work. He did wonderful...listened to me and was very patient.

I kept expecting him to say, "Ok enough..just be quiet for a minute!" But he never did.

I told him about a bad dream I'd had.

I divorced him to marry a girl. After 2 days of marriage she said, "I don't want to be married!" So, I said, "Fine let's get this thing annulled."

We took care of it, and I was so desparate to find husband and tell him about the huge mistake I had made and how sorry I was...and to beg him to take me back.

I found him in the back office in the house. He was eating a plate of spagetti. I leaped onto his lap, on top of his dinner. I didn't care, I just wanted to be back in his arms again.

I asked him if he would take me back and re-marry me, and he said very kindly and gently, "Of course."

So, the nightmare ended well...but the time in which I was panicked and terrified that my stupid mistake would leave me without him was just horrible. He responded favorably to my dream. Said it was sweet.

But, the dream does reinforce for me what the Walk-Aways go through.

It stinks. Given the choice, I'd much rather be the left behind than the walk-away.

In any case, we spent a pleasant time together. Husband beat me and Little Brother at Trivial Persuit. I applauded him as the Master/Genius he is.

Husband and Little Brother stayed up late playing on the X-Box.

I was happy when Husband finally joined me in bad...but felt so strange..I'd gotten used to being a bed hog again. I love being able to sprawl out.

Sunday, Husband helped me set up for my first in-home Massage appointment.

It went well and I am optimistic about this little side business.

I'm so happy to be getting back into the swing of performing Swedish Massages.

Husband will be back for good on Tuesday...so tonight is my last night with the bed to myself.

But that's ok...I didn't sleep very well last night. I think because I missed having him by my side.

He is officially finished with retail! Woo hoo!

He starts his new job May 3rd.

And he's going to give up smoking.

I'm happy, but I'm so scared. He's an absolute meanie when trying to give up smoking.

Am hoping to DB my way through it. Will act as if he won't be a meanie!

Stay focused on the positives.

Little Brother is a sweetheart.

He's a smart kid...great personality...

I told him about what I remembered about our first meeting.

He was 6 years old...such a cutie. I was scared to meet Husband's family, and this little boy just came right up to me and said, "Hey PIB, come watch me roller skate!"

He's a good guy.

Hugs all!
