I took my kids up to a friend's lake cabin this weekend. It was paradise (not quite, but close). The kids had a fantastic time. The played with their friends, fishing, tubing and went waterskiing.
For me it made me happy to see them forget everything and smile without a care in the world. However, it was a bit surreal. This friend is one that has a wife that used to be a good friend with my STBX. She went over the top to treat me kindly. Big hug and kiss and everything. I think she is worried about me. It was very nice, but I felt like she thought I was dying or something.
I liked the place up there so much I'm thinking about buying a cabin there if one comes available.
