Well. In an effort to try to remove some of my trepidation over the situation I might have accidentally rushed somewhat but nothing that hasn't happened before under completely different circumstances.
I don't think it's a relationship unless many things change in however time there's left. And, well, I've never done that. I wasn't thinking of doing it. Never asked where my sisters got their children from either.
We'll find a way to amuse ourselves in the meantime, somehow.
