Wow, I haven't posted in quite awhile, and I'm not sure where to start in order to catch up! I've got to make a more concerted effort to post in a timely manner, even if the posts are shorter in length!
Let's see, I think we last left off with Spencer cutting ties with his drinking buddy Kip. Kip's reaction wasn't one of maturity, and it got so bad that we had to file harassment charges against him. We're not sure when the court date will be, but it's been nice and quiet since we filed.
Spencer has been doing much better as far as his anger issues that accompanied drinking with Kip. And the quantity of beer consumed is less on any given evening, though there have been some stretches of up to five evenings in a row. But I'll take lower quantities and more evenings over excessive quantities once or twice a week and lots of angry talk and arguing.
In general, I say we're getting along noticeably better, laughing together more, spending evenings watching television, talking, reading, and have had some luscious sex.
And I've had really good moral support from Huxley and Cary and a couple guys on facebook [ES and BD] for which I'm thankful.
Spencer is also back to focusing on some of his metaphysical interests and helping with a group in a neighboring city that meets monthly to discuss related topics. It's given him more purpose and makes him feel necessary and needed. He's also starting a life-coach program with a recent presenter, and we've got hopes that it'll at least give him skills to set goals and create a strategy to meet them.
I'd really also like for him to find a companion as special to him as Cary is to me. I'm hoping that with his participation in this metaphysical group, he'll find someone like-minded and compatible. It's been a blessing to me to have Cary, and the growing, though at this point long-distance, friendship I have with Huxley, and I want Spencer to feel as appreciated and loved as I do--to feel those things from someone in addition to me. He's allowed me that gift, and he deserves the same.
On a different note, we did get to go away for a couple nights to a local resort/casino, and though the beer flowed freely, we hardly argued or fussed. And we ate like each meal was our last lol. But it was a great escape, and knowing Baby was being taken care of by our house-sitter enabled us to relax and not worry so much. We usually only get to travel once a year together, so we made the most of it!
That's where I'll leave it for this evening,
But I thank you for checking back in with me,
And I wish you,
Warmer days and cozier nights,
~Pym
