Today was an interest and good day. We met at the club in the morning. Felt really good to get a good workout in. Then we all went back to the house to get ready. H and I took a shower together! Perhaps TMI, but it's been a loooong time since that's happened and we used to shower together every day. After that, we all piled into the car and headed to this great nursery in the East Bay; it was their annual Spring party. Cool nursery, fun time for all of us. Then we headed to Berkeley to check out a great pizza place. We came back and did some gardening and played in the yard with the kids. It really was a great day, I feel that H and I bonded a little today even. Definitely think it was really good timing to have today happen after last night.
Seriously, if H didn't see today as a good day to have in life, he's more screwed up than I think. We got along well, the kids had a great time, we enjoyed ourselves as a family and I personally felt more like a couple/family than I have in a long time. H reached out to me once and put his arms around my shoulders and I got a couple of hugs today. Then when he left we hugged really tight, kissed and he squeezed me a few times. Said ILY when he left (I always get a real ILY back, not just an emotionless mirror back), got the same and he even made kissing noises from under his motorcycle helmet.
All-in-all a really good day. He's coming by Tuesday night so we can figure out where we are going to place the hot tub that we have sitting in the garage. I'm going to go really dim tomorrow and give him space; I'm sure he'll need it.
Regarding my niece. Eye-yi-yi! I think she's in LaLa Land, but hopefully this will propel her solidly into adulthood. She and BF are planning on getting married in Summer '09. (She wants to be able to drink at her reception.) She's afraid to tell her Mom, but BF, bro, me, other aunt and friends know. I'm really worried about how my sister is going to take this. It's either going to be great or horrible. Sis is bi-polar and an alcoholic. Nephew heads off tomorrow for the Air Force and she was drunk and crying tonight on the phone, "My baby's leaving. You know you're old when you're baby leaves." All I could think is, "Well then, prepare yourself for turning 50 and a few months later being a Grandma!"
This is going to be interesting, at the very least.
