Had a pretty good evening last night and a pretty good day today. H left town yesterday (as I said above), but his mom called us over for dinner. The kids had a great time with their grandparents. We went over this morning and spent most of the day helping them move their birds around. There house was destroyed 2 years ago in Hurricane Rita, and they are just finishing up all the repairs. It was nice to spend some time with them. They don't seem to think that H knows what he is doing or what he wants. I don't think so either. I am just keeping my distance as much as I can and letting him come to a decision on his own. I know I can't force him, but I am seeing some positive changes in his attitude with me. I am cautiously optimistic with the things that happened yesterday, but I am afraid to give myself any false hope. I talked with his mom about it a little. She agreed that at some point he is going to decide that a D is not what he wants, but I have to decide at what point that realization is just too late for me. I talked my IC about it a bit yesterday. I told her that I had a 6 month image in my head, and that at that point I might consider filing on my own to get out of this limbo he has put us in. She is a great counselor. She said I shouldn't look at the 6 months as my time to file, but I should look at it as a time to reassess the situation and see where I think we are. If we are making great strides at that point but he isn't completely there yet, I have to consider that in my decision rather than just walk away from it.
