Hi ROOT- I think I told that I was going to my H's office yesterday to drop off checks. I had called first to make sure he was going to be there and he wasn't so I figured I would do it first thing this morning. Well, my H never showed up or called in to say he wouldn't be in today. He did send his partner, his secretary and me a text about payroll but that was it. I spoke with his partner who is now very concerned. I asked if he had been acting different and his partner said yes. He said he is more "bossy". I said he was irritable and angry with me before he left and he partner agree that he had been acting that way at the office. Sadly, I feel a little better know his anger isn't all directed at me. I think he has to be having a MLC.
I agree with you completely about having boyfriends around my kids or getting remarried (furthest thing from my mind) while they are still at home. I really never introduced my kids to guys I dated until my H and I were pretty serious so, I am very protective when it comes to my kids.
My D has a hard time going to her father's house sometimes. She feels like she is her father's least favorite child...poor thing. She is such a great kid. Great student, great athletic, very sweet and loving, a little onry, great sense of humor and very determined when she wants something. How could you not love her. My S (who is a great kid too) seems okay with his dad. When my H and I married, I decided not to any more kids because I didn't anymore attention away from them.
I will see how it goes for the birthday and anniversary gifts. Who knows if I will even be seeing my H between now and then. And I think will be boxing up my H's stuff and asking him what he wants me to do with it.
