On this weekend, home-basing out of my house, Teresa took Tyson to work with her to help accommodate his veterinary needs, and brought him home after work, and she also helped host my mother for a bday lunch on the deck, complete with homemade pizza.
Our lives continue to fully mesh, and Teresa offers more and more kindnesses that touch more closely held parts of my own life.
Add these to the pile with more delicious dinners and cute dining ideas like a nacho bar, and color me super impressed!
We also had a nice bike ride, though a disparity in horsepower, since I had the electric. Teresa tried it, but resented the power-assist and called it "not bike riding." XD
One thing we are doing noticeably well as a couple, now, is leaving space for each other when needed, for work, but also just unwinding solo time. We have both demonstrated that we value it, and value in a partner someone who understands it. We'll check in on whether it's "ok" that we go do something solo, but the answer is always an empathic and empathetic yes. Understanding the concept of comfortable space seems equally important to both of us.
