Thanks so much. I know it's just a small step and I am not ready in myself and I don't think he's ready for anything else either. That feels okay today. I'm actually learning to value my time alone and I know there are more things I need to work on - regardless of what happens with my R - that it is better for me to work on outside of working on the R.
I am not sure how to tell when I am 'in piecing'. I don't think - knowing me as I am - that I can rely on H doing or saying something that would make me certain of that. I need to look inside myself. I don't think I am ready myself yet.
