H coming today, what do I do when he asks how I am

[SallyM]

thanks, Irish. I haven't read DR, just DB. what is the difference? haven't decided if I want to buy another one right now.

you are right, of course, about the festival. and honestly that one would probably boomerang right in my face...it wouldn't do anything to him, or not much, but it would hit me in the gut one way or the other.

have a wonderful pajama movie party with DD. how old is your DD? I think I might do something like that with my 3 tomorrow night...they are a little young, still, but it could be fun. I know my eldest would love it, just hate leaving the other 2 out, who tend to get a bit punchy/distracted at the end of the day. hmmm...food for thought.

I have a big proud right now. I'm not in the best place, mood wise, in fact I actually tried to call his mom...thankfully she wasn't home. I know I need to stop that. anyway, when he called tonight I took a deep breath, then really perked up, and made it sound like the kids and I were having the best time (instead of the fact that I had just had a battle with them over something or other and there was a bit of whining going on). they even started giggling in the background while I was talking to him. they all said goodnight, then I got on really quick and figured he'd head off the phone, instead he got a little chatty, asked how my day was. I told him it was good, we had a good time, and asked him how the golf was. he got a little quiet then, but I didn't ask any more, and I sounded normal and upbeat when I asked. then, of course, I was too busy to talk (busy busy busy!) and had to run.

he sounded a little sad on the phone. my interpretation, the one I am choosing, because who knows what really is going on, is that he is having a miserable time with OW. In fact, they bickered and got rained on the whole time. and tonight, instead of a romantic, lust filled evening, she is being a PITA and complaining about everything, alternating with being really needy. oh, and her hair extensions are falling out. oooh...I think there is also a big zit on her chin.
