Well my brother, his wife and my nepehew left this morning. It was really great having them here for the last couple days. I haven't seen them since before S was born so it was great that they got to meet him finally. My brother tried to call H to see if he could talk to him. H said he couldn't at the moment, but he'll be travelling to a city near theirs next week and he'll call him to get together. My brother just wants to talk to him to basically tell him he's got respect and and the kids in this process. I tried to talk to brother to let him know NOT to talk on my behalf and to not say anything that pertains to saving the M. He just wants to be a big brother to me and since H has no older male figures to tell him these things, my bro thinks it's his place. Well, right or wrong, I'm grateful. I know my brother will be respectful and won't do anything to 'backslide' my efforts. Right now H couldn't be any more firm that it is over anyway.
SO, besides that I haven't really seen him since the day after boxing day when he dropped D off. He was in and out of here so quick he didn't come to see the baby. I think he wanted to get out before he could make eye contact with anyone in my family!
We're supposed to take D skating tomorrow...we'll see how that goes.
I'm over the sadness that the holidays brought, I think having my brother here helped with that. I'm ready to put my DB'ing face back on...no more tears in front of H...NONE! He doesn't deserve my tears any more and frankly, I'm tired of crying.
All I know is I'm exhausted from the last 5 days (physically and emotionally) and I need a rest. The house is a disaster...and I don't care! I'm going for a nap. Hope everyone is doing ok. J~
