I am really not looking forward to moving. The place I am going to be renting is ok, but it's a big down grade to what I have now. There really isn't anything nice about the place, and since I am renting, there is not much I can do to it either. Kind of gets me down as I love interior decorating.
Also, people that rent there usually do short term leases so it's not like I will be meeting many people. The only thing good about it, is that it has 3 bedrooms, they allow my dog, and S7 won't have to change schools.
So today I am missing my old H alot.
Wednesday night he told me that he wanted to hire someone to do a yard cleanup because his back wouldn't be able to handle it. I told him to go ahead but I warned him that it could be expensive.
He said "I know, but just call up and shop around for someone."
Me: You told me you were going to be taking care of the yard so you need to do it.
JA: I don't know anyone around here because I don't live in this area.
Me: Well I don't know anyone either.
JA: Just call people
Me: Listen I have a busier schedule than you these days and I don't have the time to do it.
Anyway, he said a smart ass comment and that was the end of that conversation.
Thursday night he leaves me a message saying that he would be here on Friday afternoon to do the cleanup.
I was shocked. He came to do it. I mowed the lawn while he did it. When I was done I brought him out a glass of iced tea. What did he do? He started suggesting that I do this and that next. I did help out so I didn't have to hear his mouth. In a way it also felt nice to be doing something together again even if it was yard work.
Then I had to go pick S4 up from preschool. I locked the house doors so he couldn't get in. He noticed and I think was insulted.
Too bad, I don't need him prying through my stuff and taking what he wants while I was gone.
When I got back I had to go pick S7 up at the bus stop. Guess who shows up there?
Yep, JA.
He almost wouldn't let me get S7 off the bus again.
However S7 ran up to me first and gave me a hug.
Then JA said he had to go back to the house to get something to drink.
So he followed me home.
I went inside and heard my phone ring.
It was him calling from the driveway.
He said "Can you bring out some drinks for the boys please because I throw my back out again and I can't move."
I think he was full of sh!t and was just looking for pity.
However I brought the boys out their drinks and him out one too.
He starts in on that I just need to clean up this, that, this and that, outside.
I ignored him.
I should of told him I couldn't because I had a hot date. Didn't think of that until later.
He is so into his own world.
When he was leaving his phone rang and he said "I gotta go"
I felt like saying to him "she has you on a short leash, huh" but of course like always I bit my lip.
I sometimes still can't believe that we are no longer together. I do miss the old him so much. He was my high school sweetheart. We had so many memories together, but now he has created new ones with the bimbo.
Oh, and I forgot to mention. I spoke with our friend Andy the other day and he said that JA sometimes sounds so depressed on the phone and then other days sounds all happy.
