Grad went great! All day was everything that could go wrong did go wrong and I was a nervous wreck.
H and exh kept their distance and behaved well. D's boyfriend was nervous but got comfortable with us and during the evening talked to me about his feelings and plans for my d. Very nice style.
It was a late night and H used to complain about late hours, but no complaints last night. No complaints today.
Something else was going on that I didn't mention before - when having routine tests two months ago, I was informed that the result were abnormal and I needed to follow up. I postponed it until after d's grad so incase it was bad news I wouldn't ruin it. Today I followed up and everything is fine! Another relief.
No tears this time - the crowd was routy, the kids were routy ( they had these beach balls and kept trying to bounce them around during the ceremony - outdoors - but the teachers kept taking them away) I kind of got carried away by the routiness of the crowd and started to boo the teachers when they stopped the ball and the rest of the night, the crowd kept booing them. I sort of feel bad.
Back at the house all her friends came over and we had fun! They are such a great bunch. So I am now declared "old" because I have two adults for kids. Feel older when d's boyfriend asked for my permission to get serious.
H and I are still getting along very well. We talk things through and I see him enjoying himself now. He sees how much we actually have in common and how much fun we have together. He even enjoyed the grad because for the first time he can remember, he is having positive feelings and awareness of what is happening. More appreciation. It feels good.
