Hello all,
Bill and the girls have left for an evening of father/daughter bonding at the "Special Guy Dance". They looked so cute, all dressed up for their first "date" and boy was Daddy proud! [img]images/icons/grin.gif" border="0[/img]
So, now here I am alone and I'm going to do a bit of pampering in a bit. I was reading a bit here and realized that I haven't posted anything in ages. I am here almost every night and feel as though I know many of you. I'm in a bit of a melancholy mood and am just reaching out to say hi, really. These times (my alone time) would always include OM before, and I guess part of me is feeling residual stuff. This being alone is a trigger. Bill knows, I told him and he thanked me for telling him.
Well, thanks for "listening" and I'm gonna go enjoy a nice, long, hot bath. Vivaldi, wine and me! [img]images/icons/smile.gif" border="0[/img]

Well, my situation is different, but I identify with the difference in alone times versus others. In my case, I find that when I am not with my H, I am angry with him or hate him or some other negative emotion, and sometimes it is very hard to control. But then when he is with me, none of this comes out and I just go along with whatever he's doing in the way of touching or conversation or whatever, and sometimes I shock myself by being affectionate myself, when just a few minutes before I was on here slamming him. Maybe it's getting the slamming out that enables me to be nice to him? [img]images/icons/confused.gif" border="0[/img] <p>This anger stage has been around for the last few days, and it is very disorienting--this back and forth between rage and affection.<p>I wish I could go take a nice relaxing bath, too, but have to go to the store instead. But I can join you with Vivaldi in the car on the way and enjoy some wine when I get back--great ideas! Have a good night. [img]images/icons/grin.gif" border="0[/img]

Hi back [img]images/icons/grin.gif" border="0[/img] <p>Relaxing sounds good...
Being alone for me as a BS does something the opposite it makes me a tad anxious. But hey life goes on right? Go find a nice book to read, light a candle or soemthing, turn on the radio and all the lights it makes it feel more "homey".<p>Conqueror.. hey tisk tisk no drinking and driving!
oh wait.. i read wine in the car and vivaldi back home HA.
