OK, I totally screwed up today. The kids got home about 5:30 and H was with them of course. I went outside and said hi to the kids (hadn't seen them in 5 days) and talked a lot to H. More than I've said in the past year. Asked about his dad, and his dad took some pictures of the kids for me which was nice. He grew a beard and I didn't say anything about that. Asked how the kids were, he said mostly good except when they went to his mom's (b/c she doesn't have anything for kids to do and is not very good with kids). I've been dark so well for like a year. Is it bad that I emerged from the darkness? I think I will just go back to NC, but in my defense I hadn't seen the kids in days!!! To some extent, it prob. doesn't matter does it??? \:\) Karen
