Well, ladies, you're not going to believe this. Not two minutes after my last most, my cell starts ringing. It's H (lunch at shool had just ended and OW is back in class). He wants to stop by. I said sure, I have about an hour til I have to pick up S9.
He came with a gift... Cameras must be in season. I priced it at a min of $165.00 plus memory card and case. Not bad. It came in a BestBuy.com bag. This hasn't come out of the account so he must have opened his own best buy acct. wow. wow.
Last time he wouldn't touch my food. Today he scarfed down everything in sight including the bread pudding I made this morning. Plus he took some chiles and an apple that the kids picked. He was only here 45 minutes. He ate lunch with S2 (I made food but didn't join them). It was a nice visit over all.
Of course I thanked him for the camera, but I wasn't really sure how to act. I was really taken by surprise. I couldn't kiss and hug him like I used to in these sitches. All I could do was say "Thank you, that was very thoughtful." I know he wants pics of the kids, but really, he didn't have to do this.
I know I should just be happy, but I am still irked by the following: 1. He stayed at school all morning under her big ugly thumb. He is so whipped (but he's going contacting me on the sly) 2. He mentioned I should give his desk to the kids. I asked what he had his PC on. He said it was on the floor and that he was thinking of taking it for his brother to use. This really irritates me. It makes me feel like our sitch is permanent. On top of that, we just bought that PC while the one I have is over 4 yrs old and on its last leg.
Well, I'm not going to put too much stock in what he says. He said he was taking his books to his brother's too, but they are still sitting here. If our lives can turn upside down in a matter of months, they can turn back around too.
His current actions are promising, but I think I have to back off a little. I think I am being too available. What do you ladies think?
COOL CALM PEACE DARK PATIENCE
