More journaling... and a slightly selfish attempt to bump up my post back into the first page.

This past week has been for the most part, uneventful. After last weekends sexual re-igntion and ML. This week has not been very sexually charged. Although I've put forth some effort here and there, the bits of "electrical charge" haven't really been there like they were last week. I don't know why. I thought that maybe last weeks encounter would have sparked a little ember that we could continue to fan into a larger flame this week. I was hoping that we could build some EC this past week that would lead to some ML this weekend. But it's just not there.

On the other hand, I have been paying a lot of attention to my W's actions and moods this week. She seems to be doing a little better since begining her new medication treatment a few weeks ago. The reasons for this are two fold. What I was surpised to discover was this. When she got the newer Rx, I had asked how her thyroid meds where doing. She said that she hadn't been taking them, said that she usually forgets. She hasn't been taking them for months. I was really mad, I told her that she knows that she needs to take them regualarly and it's no wonder that she has no energy and feels tired most of the time. I also told her that she never forgets to take her pain meds and this one is no different, so start taking these too. That was a few weeks ago, now she takes all her meds regularly, every evening and she does appear to be improving. Over the course of past few weeks she's doing more around the house, dishes aren't piling up like they used too, washing clothes regularly, sometimes starting a load or folding a basket later in the evening (unusual for her). She has even asked if I could take Thurs or Fri off this week so we could do the last of our Christmas shopping together. Which is yet another sign to me that she is feeling better. Unlike a stereotypical female, she doesn't like "shooping" all to well, even more so during the holiday rush. She usually does most of our shooping online. So, just the fact that she suggested that we go this week is another positive.

I just occurred to me, that I need to that I need to tell her this. I mean, some honest validation and WOA on how well she seems to be doing. Looking over the fence to her side for a moment, she hasn't got enough of that this week. I should share some of my observations and let her know that I appreciate all that she is doing, let her know how proud I am of her and how much I love her.

Maybe then I can crank up the playfullness a bit more, we can lock lips, drool and "suck some face".
