Wait & See

It's been a while since I've written.  I've been in a state of 'wait and see' regarding this relationship... There are so many odd things going on in our lives (both D's & mine).  I can't tell f our annoyance with one another at times is because we don't like one another anymore or if the stress of life is beating on us.  So rather than just saying "I'm done with this craziness", rather than yelling, crying and arguing, I remembered many stories of happy relationships that I have read and heard from friends who have been married 40 or 50 years or more.  The common thread is that there will be good times and bad times and the difference between people who made their relationships work understood how to get through - ignore to some extent - the bad times.  Because the adage of 'this too will pass' has been adopted by the successful couples.  So I decide that I don't know where this relationship is going, hence I will 'wait & see'.

Well, it's been a while and things in both our lives are getting better.  His job is permanent & much better.  My job is much less stressful - finally, I got more help!  And now when he "comes home" we are talking, and more importantly we are LAUGHING!

Today, he came home with these beautifully wrapped flowers!   They were wrapped in thick pink paper & tied with a ribbon!  Yellow & orange tulips.   It felt wonderful.  Yes, wonderful.  Wonderful.

I feel like a girlfriend again - a very good feeling!  Wonderful.  I feel special.  A Wonderful Feeling!

Good things come to those who wait??????? Who knew that saying was true????  :-)
