Reboot
So, I like him again. Something hit me Friday, and I decided to once again enjoy Mvob's company - and it worked.
We went to Beacon Rock on Saturday, and had a perfect little hike on a perfect weather day in the beautiful Columbia River Gorge. Then, we came back and watched Breakfast at Tiffany's.
Sunday, he came over to read scriptures with me before church (it's becoming a "thing we do" since I suggested the idea several weeks ago), and had a great and busy Sunday full of church, choir practice, dinner and games at his Sister's house, and then a fireside. Bambambambam - good thing I was enjoying his company, huh! After all that, he volunteered to stay even longer and help me get some things knocked off my "To do Before Thanksgiving" list. I let him help me change the license plates on my car (I hadn't done it only because I didn't have the right kind of socket-wrench or screwdriver or whatever) and then made him go home and get some sleep before he had to begin his graveyard shift at 1am.
Side note - Mvob has been insecure about his singing abilities. I convinced him to do choir. Last week, he didn't have much fun, being one of two guys there. He doesn't really know how to read music and struggled. But, he was committed enough not to give up (on me, or the music-maybe the music because of me, but I'm totally willing to accept that). Last week he had a great time. He feels he's learning about singing. It also helped that about 20 other guys showed up.
Also - He does recognize now that he was crazy to work graveyards full time, do school full time, AND maintain girlfriend attention all at the same time. I think he's planning on cutting back on both school and work hours next semester - hmmmm. I guess I don't have to think too hard about what the plans are for girlfriend time is, huh. But since I work ~50 hr. weeks, that can't grow by too much.
I am SOOOooo glad to be done with school. For now. .. . .. . maybe I'll do a masters, or a second degree sometime.. . .. . maybe. Let's not get ahead of ourselves here.

Goodness. I'm exhausted just reading about your life... I'm glad you're finding some inner peace and calm (*LOL*, I just typed "peas"...) after such a whirlwind of emotion. I hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving and find you've been on the path upward the whole time.
Love and Hugs,
Idaho Divorcee
