Tomorrow is our anniversary. Hmmm....bummer. Nothing planned, it's up to W now.

Came home from work tonight, and for the first time in months, W tried to smile at me when I walked in. Not a beaming, ear to ear smile, but that kind of sort of sad, feeling sorry for yourself one. I bowed my head slightly to acknowledge I had seen this.

Gonna be a difficult 36 hours, but hey, it's been worse!

Hi Py

I've been checking in on you, but nothing to add to your PMA!

Yeah, Anniversary today. I know W knows as it's marked on the calendar. Will anything amazing happen? No, I don't think so.

Got in from work. W has dressed up in a lovely top and her skinny jeans. Hair done as well. W has made a meal. Nothing fancy (Pasta Bake), but this is the first time in months I haven't had to make my own meal when I've done for the day. It was good, so thanked her for her efforts. No real warmth though in her response.

Went upstairs to run the kids bath. Her mobile phone has been left on my bed, open. Notice she has two missed calls and messages from her Mum. Obviously, I haven't snooped. Why was she on the bed (noticed indentations in bedding)?

So, bat signal to Wonka, cadet, sandi2. My initial thoughts are just to carry on what I'm doing. Just wondering if I'm missing a signal though? I've been in this position before, tried to reach out and got kicked in the teeth. Your thoughts are appreciated.

I think you are on the right track.


I should have added when in doubt best to do NOTHING.

Yeah, thought so! No harm in double checking.

Yep. Inaction is sometimes action. DBers...especially newbies...tend to forget this gem.

Looking good Huddy! The fact that she even dressed up implies recognise it as an occasion at least. Also missed calls from MIL - bonus, on your bed?-another bonus.

Thanks for your input. Just needed a bit or reassurance I wasn't missing something. Keeping on the path.
