Land of confusion

[redhottie]

H made it back to town on Thursday. It was his night with the Ds and I asked if he could run D16 to the mall to pick something up. This is something that I have always done. H did it without complaining. I had D11 at her tryout so I dropped her at his house when it was over. He was making dinner when I dropped them off and offered dinner to me. I declined as I needed to get home and take my dogs out.

Friday I was at the rink with D11 and H called. I was talking with friends and wasn't in the mood for him so I sent it to VM. H ended up showing up at the rink and actually sat down with me. We chatted a little, then I took D home.

I thought H would ask about seeing the Ds this weekend since he missed most of his weekend with them because of his business trip. Didn't really happen. He did ask about dropping D10 off at his brother's house for a sleepover. I said sure and told him what time we would be eating if he was hungry. Months ago he would have turned it down but he said ok yesterday. He ate dinner at my house but he didn't sit down at the table with us.

I'm really confused as to if he is thinking about coming down off of the fence.

I am taking the Ds out of town to see my brother and his family for Thanksgiving. H will be stuck here alone. MIL is having their family for Thanksgiving but I don't know if H will go. It usually is a Norman Rockwell event so he would rather not go. My MIL tried to make me feel guilty about going to my brother's house, but I pointed out that it has been years since I have seen any of my family on Thanksgiving.
