Having a great day with W. Went to church and breakfast for oldest S last day of school (Catholic school). At lunch time she needed me to fix her computer at work so I did that and we went to lunch. Last night we watched Oceans 11, good movie. Great one to rent to get your W warmed up (George Clooney, Brad Pitt, Matt Damon, Andy Garcia), just kidding. Gave her lots of touching which she likes. I told her ILY very softly and subtly last night and got a cuddle but no verbal response. That doesn't bother me quite as much anymore but I wanted to tell her that.
Z,
I haven't forgot what you said about actions. I did a really good job today and now it is all about keeping it up at every chance. I was very tired last night but offered to help clean up the kitchen, but she said "you are tired just go take a break". Oh, the little things. Her caring about doing her share around the house is an accurate measuring tool of how she feels. And it is even the first week of the month!! PMS usually a nasty time. Don't think that I mention it, I just don't take things too personally.
Check this out, she got green and blue contacts for fun and has been joking about her different "personalities". I am glad she said it and not me.
Please understand that I realize my sitch is not as complicated as most. My hope is that when some of your S start to come back like mine we can compare notes and stay on track to a great R. I will back off on my posts to make way for the more serious cases. I am just a little pumped up about how it has progressed in only 2 weeks.
