My sitch...long but please indulge me

[billclay18]

Last night I help my W and step D move the last of their furniture and stuff into the living room for the movers. Acted like I was helping a buddy move. My W thanked me for helping. This morning when I got up she was already awake, had been since 3:30. Nervous energy anticipating her move? Anxiety over it? Who knows. She looked like she may have been crying. We said goodbye, short and sweet. I told her I wished things had turned out differently and I hope she finds her happiness. She said pretty much the same. We hugged. I got a little teary eyed, but I’m not going to beat myself up over that. I realize women are attracted to strong , confident men, but I would think emotionless, stoic men are just as unattractive. I think a few tears were an appropriate reaction under the circumstances.

I left to run some errands and go for a bike ride with my BIL’s. When I got home, she was gone and I’m doing quite well. She did not take the D paperwork that’s been sitting on my dresser for weeks. Not reading anything into that…probably not her biggest priority right now.

I’ve got a busy weekend planned. I’m meeting a friend this afternoon to discuss our “strategy” for our Fantasy Football draft tonight. Best night for it…being with 20 of my closest friends with no opportunity to dwell on or talk about the events of today. Always one of my favorite nights of the year. Tomorrow I’m painting my D’s bedroom… she’s moving into my step D’s old room. Hope to have it all ready for her for Tuesday.

After that I’m getting on with my life…the rest is out of my hands.
