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.

You are so sweet to give your thoughts and time.

Hope you have a great weekend.
