Thanks Blackfoot, your post felt like a warm blanket to me, very comforting. I'm glad to hear from you
I don't have a good feeling that H will respond to my email. Last night when I called to talk to the kids, he let the kids answer and hung up right after without waiting to see if I had anything to say to him. I didn't, but still. When he does those things, it makes me feel like I'm the one who's done something wrong. It's the weirdest and one of the most effective weapons in his aresenal-he gets mad at ME when he's done something wrong. Then I feel guilty for my reaction, or the way I handled things, or on and on. Takes the focus right off him lucky bastard. But not this time.
