My H spent tonight again with the kids at our house, ate dinner with us, and some chocolate cake D8 & I had made actually mostly made by D8 (she even cracked the eggs & didn't have any shells in the batter)!
I went to work out for part of the time upstairs while H was at our house so I didn't hover. I did spend a half hour watching cage wrestling with him before he left and talked H into watching one extra fight before he left!
We got along great as usual lately. H seems less angry and more friendly now; it is a nice change! He's not working much lately on the house in efforts to sell it; so it doesn't seem like he is rushing into divorce. But I also don't get any impression that he is wanting to move back in or reconcile either.
The kids and I were close before H moved out and now are even closer, and I think H must see that. Both kids seem almost to avoid H sometimes and hug on me instead: I guess they are seeing me as the stable one they can count on and they have lost that feeling about their dad, unfortunately. I am glad he is trying to see them a lot. He is going to come over early Sat. night (I'll make dinner again probably) and then will take the kids to sleepover at his apt. which is going to be weird for me without the kids that night! Karen
