Saw H today. Dropped off some mail at work and he was alone. He took the mail and turned right back to the PC. I said goodbye and then he asked how my dad was. Gave him a little update and then some small talk about work. In and out in about 3 mins. I stayed friendly and conversational, although internally I was initially miffed that he didn't even want to make small talk, but then he showed some heart by asking about my dad. I thought about it later, and maybe it's hard for him to look at me so that's why he looks away. Trying to keep his barriers up?
Well, I'm just moving on and taking care of me. Dad slept most of the dad away, so I checked on him 2x and then went to a movie with my D16 and her step-mom. We all get along well so it wasn't/isn't weird. Saw The Proposal and it was very cute! Lots of fun parts and not totally predictable. Going for a hike tmrw with my FIL and looking forward to getting some exercise. It's hard to leave Dad, but he is in good hands and we all have our own lives/responsibilities as well. So, it's a balancing act.
