My other thread is soon to lock up so I will begin a new one.
I am so looking forward to a New Year.
I took the girls to the mall this morning and saw snow capped mountains from a distance. It was beautiful and the skies were all blue and clear.
and i left H a voice mail as a reminder he has to pick the girls up and that they would text him with where he is to meet them at.
i also told him that i prayed for him and said that there is a verse in Proverbs or Psalms that constantly sticks out in my mind not just for him but for me and that is the one which says if we have iniquity in our hearts, then God does not hear us.
i told him that i think about my actions a lot and does God hear me when i willfully/knowingly do wrong..............
i was very nice about it and did not attack. he is able to hear this so i was not afraid to tell him.
have a good day!

He sometimes responds but other times he mostly absorbs what I have to say and does not react.
He told me earlier in the year to not be afraid to ask or tell him anything.
I knew he was ready to hear what I had to say if I were to say anything.
It took him a few years to get to this stage.

Let me add that in that there have been times where I really got ticked off and let it out only to later apologize for reacting the way I did.
His reaction: "It is okay. Don't worry about it. I forgive you."

H is here and just took the girls out to one of their favorite stores. As if the mall was not enough. They tired of the mall after less than two hours and called to see if I could come pick them up. Of course I did and now H is taking them to another store as they have gift certificates as well.
D16 is getting ready to go on her winter retreat up north on Monday and will be back on New Years Eve.
They will call me just before they leave the store so I can start dinner. Just simple stuff, nothing fancy and yes, H will eat with us.
He seems very quiet this afternoon.

Let's hope and pray that your h is reflecting and will come up with some viable answers for the new year.
Girls never get tired of shopping, especially teenagers. At least you've had some time to yourself today, even if it's been in bits and pieces.
A simple and easy dinner sounds just about right for this evening. If your h is quiet and doesn't engage much into the conversation, just let him be. He's got a lot to think about.
Enjoy your evening. We hit a high of about 63 today...very warm for this time of year for us.
Sit quietly, the answers will reveal themselves when you least expect them to. The past is gone, the present is a gift and you need to focus on today, allow the future to reveal itself when it is ready.
Hope you have a nice evening with your H and kids. It seems that we have exchanged the cold with you. It was pretty warm here today, but lots and lots of rain.
I hope your text message went down well with him. It seems to me that he is really trying to work on coming home (in his own way).
H took the girls to Kohl's and they used their certificates for a few things. It really helps that they get these and some $$ from my inlaws. They can buy clothes and shoes and whatever else they need.
We had dinner together (h included) and while at the table the girls brought up New Year's Eve and Day and what to make. I told H he was more than welcome to join us both days and he said he would. I was like, "You will?!!" And he said yes.
He said he would be back tomorrow at between 2&3PM.
That was my (our) day.

He is here on 4th of July, Easter, Memorial Day, Labor Day, you name it, he spends it with us.
