thanks for all the support everyone. it is nice to know i can vent somewhere where everyone understands. i know i have to be patient, unfortunately that is not my strong suit, but i am trying very hard.

What harm can that do? Maybe she just got busy cleaning up after they left, or maybe they stayed longer than planned, or maybe she wants to settle in before calling you. You never know. Try to stay calm.

Whit -- i do have her number, but the thought of calling absolutely terrifies me. i feel that i have to wait for her to call me. like if i call i'm being too pushy and i'll freak her out. i've only talked to her for 20 mintues, so i'm still not entirely sure how's she's feeling. also, she has a husband and 3 little kids that take up a lot of her time.

Jan -- i totally know what you are talking about with the butterflies. i am completely like that. i know that it will happen for awhile with me.

i think if she doesn't call tonight, i might try calling her tomorrow night. if i can work up the courage. if not, i don't think i'll be able to last past next weekend, so i will probably call by then.
