H left for the day. I called about a financial issue and we argued a bit. I sent him a brief TM and that was it. I went dark after that. He called 5 or 6 hours later and I didn't bother to answer the phone because D and I were watching a movie. I had a voice message and he was thanking me for the day but he was talkinhg so much and the voice message wasn't 100% recorded.
I called him back. H said he was 4 hours outside Caracas and that he got in the car around 11 am and just drove away. He was on his way back at around 6 PM. He told me "thank you for the day, I got a chance to think about a lot of things. Whenever you need your day let me know and I'll watch D" I told him "I know you needed a day to think and relax. I know you like to drive and find that relaxing so I hope you got a chance to enjoy your drive with whatever music you wanted on the cd player. I hope you had a nice day"
he'll be going again for 2 or 3 days this week. I'm not going to call him and certainly not going to ask him where he's going.
He seemed so appreciativce today so I figure 2 or 3 days will be nice for both of us.
H told his friend Friday that our marriage was broken and he saw no way out of it. But was encouraged to take a little vacation to think things over. The wife and I went out to eat with our kids last night. She told me to hang in there and told me to translate my resume into Spanish and give it to her. She's a good friend and I didn't realize it until last night.
Thanks for listening/reading
