here's an example of how little interaction there is between h and the kids and I.
Today is Thursday...for the winter h has been working on Th & Fr at a place about 2hrs away...sometimes he's come home on Th night and sometimes he's stayed with relatives that have a home there. Today he left before we got up and called while I was driving the kids to school so didn't reach me...he called again around 10AM to see if I knew the results of a town vote last night that he attended. He called again around 4:30 while the kids and I were at a weekly activity that takes place from 3-5 every Thurs. He did not call my cellphone that I had with me. His message only said "anyone there? OK I'll call later" it is now 8PM the time that the kids go to bed and he still hasn't called...I do not know if he is on his way home or if he is staying up there because he didn't say. The point I'm trying to make is that..the kids haven't even asked where he is or if he is coming home. In past weeks he's not told me his plans but I overheard him telling son he'd be staying up there...WTF.

H was never very good at verbal communication...I used to write to him...not that that ever really did any good...sure he'd read them but a discussion never occured as a result. I don't feel like having another go no where conversation with him...thinking of writing something...I'll draft something and post it to see if anyone can help me get rid of any blaming, nagging things that aren't needed. I figure it's the least I can do at this point. Like most h's of was...h thinks that if I'm not complaining that everythings fine.
