Yeah Lizzy even with an Early Childhood Teaching Endorsement, I have no desire to teach kindergarten full time, ever. At least today it was a school that still does a half-day program, so only 3 hours with each class...

So church went well. Another woman in our group has her D finalized the 26 of this month. Found out about her H's second A last May. He wouldn't give up the OW so she filed. He asked her if he could move back in last week and she said no, she doesn't believe he has changed...Anyway it was interesting to bounce ideas/theories about love between a H and W w/her since she has been in my shoes. Hope my story has a happier ending though...
Two of the ladies in my group are divorced b/c of their H's behavior. Another was never married but left the F of her child after he took the child to a drug den overnight while he used... So they are all happy to share stories and empathize w/me. But again, I hope for a more positive outcome to my sitch.

So H was here when I got done w/church. He called me at 6:30 to say he was just leaving Iowa. I said I was on my way out the door but would be back at 9. He wouldn't be getting into town until 8:30 at least so I said he should stick around for a little bit if he wanted to see S and D for a minute before heading home (didn't mention seeing me although he would have to, to see them). When we pulled in the drive the people who bought his truck were pulling out of the drive and H was just going in the house. I hadn't told kids he was coming since I didn't think we would see him.

D22 mos. was over the moon "Daddeee! There is!There is! (there he is)" was all she could say pulling up the drive and seeing him in the garage. H gave the kids lots of lovin' but was also busy loading up some stuff to take to Iowa. I had loaded a grocery bag w/some laundry that hadn't been done when he left, and a copy of todays K.C. paper. H's former employer down here DID get bought out by a larger company, and it hit the papers today. So I got him a copy of the article so he could check it out.....

Anyway as he stood in the kitchen w/D I said "Good to see you" as I walked into the next room. From there I heard him say "Good to see you, too." I took that as a positive...

When he was getting ready to leave he hugged me and kissed me on the lips, like a Husband not a Grandma (no tongue, but a softer kiss if you know what I mean). Then he held Sissy (D) tight and looked like he wanted to cry. He cuddled her and then ran out to the truck to load it. S was already asleep on the couch (it was 10 by then). He came back in and hugged me again before he left. He also had his new work phone w/him and gave me that number, and his work number w/extension, before he left.

H will be back on Friday to spend the weekend...

No teaching tomorrow. I have my Individual C appointment. Have a ton to do but am considering a nap tomorrow....doubt I will actually do it, though. But these late nights are killing me. Can't get to sleep at night, but don't want to get up in the morning....any suggestions???

Oh and I somehow rolled my ankle again today even with the boot on, and now the bone that I broke is hurting worse again, hope I didn't re-break it

Another random thing I remember from tonight. H said, I sure don't want to drive the Ranger (his 12 yr old truck) up to Iowa tonight. Last time I took it to Iowa it broke down on the way back....It is the only vehicle he has until he gets a truck to replace the one he sold so too bad for now!

Anyway 2 or 3 more times before he left, he said "I am dreading driving back tonight", and "I don't want to drive back tonight". Don't know if it was just about the Ranger or something else...

Good night. I will try to only check back in two more times before I go to sleep
