It's so nice having y'all as friends! We have so much in common. I do wish I could see your beautiful faces.. it would make you feel more real.. but, I guess it's safer not to.
What have I been up to as of late? Well we just had a long weekend so Monday was a holiday (but then since I'm unemployed it didn't really feel different for me).
I've been preparing for a garage sale I'm having this weekend. H said that he's going to help me the day of and he's going to help me price some of the bigger items.
Things with him are the same. I gave a brief update on K's thread.
I find if I think about it too much I get annoyed. He seems to act like he cares/loves me. Always greets me with a hug and kiss... I get "love you" after some phone conversations.. some times I respond with an I love you too.. but not always and I never initiate it. My problem is that he seems to get to do whatever he wants whenever he wants. He has no responsibility. He comes twice a week and once on the weekend. We hang out and spend time as a family (this past weekend we went and saw a movie alone and he called me after to say what a great time he had with me). We have plans to do the garage sale on our own this weekend and next weekend we are supposed to go watch a soccer game just the two of us. He is continuing to include me in what's going on with his work. He wants to know what D2 and I are up to all of the time. I wonder if knowing what we are doing makes him feel like he's still a part of everything without having to make the time to really be here.
I believe I mentioned that I'm going to put our house of for sale. I'm hoping to sell a lot of stuff at the garage sale because D2 and I will be downsizing by moving back into the city. I act like he's not going to be living with us. We are hoping to sell privately if at all possible to avoid paying thousands of dollars to a realtor.
I know you know about the condo we bought that won't be ready for 1.5 or 2 years.. I told H that I was beginning to have feelings for the unit. It was really growing on me and I was finding myself decorating it in my mind.. so I asked him if it would be okay for D2 and I do live there instead of using it as an investment.. I said that D2 and I would rent a place until the unit was livable and he said okay. He actually has told his parents about the purchase and they seem very happy. His mom acts like he’s already moved back in. He did say that he’s not going to have D2 and I living in that cool spread without him (but we’re talking 1.5 to 2 years from now and if he thinks I’m going to live separated for that long he’s completely clueless).
Other than that, I’ve been searching on line for rental units for D2 and I. Ideally I’d like to find some place in the area the condo is being built.. that way I’ll already have daycare and schooling cemented for D2 so that I won’t have to move her again when the condo is ready..
I’ve been working on my resume.. need to begin working on some draft cover letters.. have been visiting with family and hanging with my beautiful little girl!
I have also been reading the boards.. so I have been keeping up with you.. I just find I don’t have much to say these days.
I think that’s all from me!
You guys and girls are wonderful. Thank you for listening and always being here!
