Hi Cadence,
I'm heading over to your thread now. Thanks for the link!

Ownit reminded me last night after I posted that with an MLC, after heavy contact like we had, there will be pull-back; it got me to thinking- I wonder if subconsciously I anticipated that, and thus suggested that we take a "break" for a while, in order to protect what would surely hurt when he did that anyway. More of an anticipatory self-protection suggestion rather than my actually needing a "break". Even if I did do that, it didn't protect me! LOL. At least I'm more self-aware of my own motivation for some of my behaviors, and that has to be a good thing.

I didn't sleep but a couple of hours again last night, but I spent the time re-reading some old threads over in MLC, and today I feel much stronger. I think I may move my thread over there. I see my IC this morning, so looking forward to that. And the weather here is feeling like the beginning of fall- lower humidity, bright blue skies, and that "football" feeling in the air. Feels good to be alive! smile
