A couple nights ago W woke me up in the middle of the night and weaseled her way into my arms. You could say I didn't put up much of a fight.

I surprised W and pursued a bit last evening by calling her on her way home from work. Wow. She said "You called..." and I said "Yes, I did". We talked for 20 minutes and she said she was glad I called. I was dropping the puppy off for her and she kissed me on the cheek and gave me a hug. So in the middle of the night she decided to snuggle again. OK, I'm fine with that.

Her folks came over last night to talk to her. They ate dinner at the house with W. I was at softball and not there. They have serious boundary issues (wonder why their kids do too) and want to be involved with, and know everything that's going on with W and me. W told me she doesn't want to tell them anything. So I told her to tell them that. And of course they asked what is going on and she told them she didn't want to talk about it. They reminded her that they are her parents, I'm sure she had forgotten....

I surprised her again with a phone call this morning to say hello. She said "You called" and that she was glad I called. So that's good.

We'll be in MC this week or next, going to set the appointment today.

Well, softball is over for me now, need to find a basketball league for one weeknight. Going to stay busy, stay in IC for now. I may go back and reread the chapters for people who aren't in the LRT stage. I'm not really sure where I should be, but I'm going to just make a point of not hiding/blunting the truth, being clear about what I want and what my boundaries are, work on my communication b/c we had plenty of communication issues, and be myself above all else.

Her dad called her last week to ask her if it was OK if he hunted with me if I called him about it. She told him she thought it was OK. I thought that was funny.

It is not things that bother us, but the stories we tell ourselves about things.
