I am right there!! I am also on the other side waiting for him (I like the way you put that!)to figure out this is the best thing in his life and that he should be lapping it up like chocolate ice cream - to hell with the messy face!!
About the "family" thing I mentioned, I just remember you having some stuff last week you were dealing with about the kids (you were irritated or something), and being a teacher, I experience that myself from time to time! I was wondering if that was any better for you, and if it was a fleeting thing.
Her call about the bookstore was a plus! I look forward to hearing how it went!! It was a spontaneous gesture - does she do this normally?
H and I love to go to Barnes and Noble and hang out in the aisles for hours sometimes on Sat. night!
It is always nice when they initiate "couple things", but sometimes still hard to take it as nothing more than" a moment" and enjoy it for that. I had a tendency to think "Wow, he really gets it" after our anniversary weekend, and then BAM! He decided to go without his ring while he had a beer.
I know it is no big deal, but it just shows me he is not ready for type of things or the level of committment I AM ready for. Not yet, anyway.
I guess for now , I will be occupying my mind with getting the bod in shape for summer. My workout partner and I are excited about getting in early workouts while we are out of school and reading by the pool!! I really need to read some FICTION!! NO RELATIONSHIP BOOKS THIS SUMMER!
What is your wife studying? Has she been a student long? Does that have anything to do with what happened in your R?
You can answer these when I e-mail you, if you want! I will have a chance to do so today - It is teacher work day at school!! YEEEEEE - HAAAAAAA!! Have a great day!
