Great surf session this morning with my H, D12, and a couple of H's friends before H went to work. I think I have a "surfer's French manicure" - my toenails have pink polish, topped off with dabs of white surf wax!
Had a nice "date nite" dinner out last night with H, we were joined at the restaurant by H's long-time friend (mine too). Afterwards, H did one of the nicest things ever for me. He bought me condoms and antibiotics!
A little explanation - back when I discovered H's affair, I wanted him to take an HIV test, but he dragged his feet on it for weeks before he did it. Well, I guess right before H left on this last trip, he got stuck with a needle from a patient who was a drug user. So he had to worry about it all during his trip - and I guess that made him realize what it must have been like for me to worry whether he had exposed me to anything through his affair.
On his return he learned that the patient tested positive for hepatitis C - so H wants to use condoms until we are sure he is in the clear. And he brought home a presription for antibiotics to make sure neither of us has chlamydia from his affair. This is such a change, for him to be cautious about these things, and to understand how it must have made me feel - well, I just think it was very loving and I'm very happy about it.
