GIMA, you did great. The best you could. I'm so glad you treasured the moments with the kids and watched your traditional show anyhow. Wishing you peace!
Fun afternoon. S and I went to the grocery to pick up something to cook on the grill. On the way back, while sitting at an intersection, a guy rear ends us. Why? Cuz he wa looking at his dam# cell phone. I saw him briefly before he hit us, and he had to be going 25 or so when he hit us. No brakes.
Thankfully, S was not hurt, and I'm just getting some stiffness and soreness in my shoulders. Grilling's going to have to wait until tomorrow.
At least when I got home, W got a hot buckwheat bag thing to put on my shoulders. She didn't have to do that.
I took the kids earlier today to go use some gift certificates. So, I got to spend some great time making them laugh for a few hourse today. And W got some alone time for several hours. Wonder if it's dawned on her this will be her existence 50% of the time?
C-Bart - I'm not too far south of GIMA and it's too cold for me to be out grilling! He's obviously a heartier sort than me. Of course, our cold is nothing compared to yours in MO!

So, I'm turning in to my room early tonight b/c I have a bit of a headach/neck ache. I went out to kiss S and D (who are heading off to bed) good night. I told W I was hitting it early (there has actually been a little talk b/w us tonight) b/c my head hurt, and she says quickly "I was gonna ask how you were feeling." Ok, then why didn't you? But, she didn't have to say it.
I hate allowing myself to have a connection with her when I know she wants me out of her life. And it's so much easier when she isn't nice.
But, her niceness in a few simple gestures tonight have helped reduce some of my resentment. I still have my guard up. As much as I would like for today to be a good sign, I just can't let myself buy into that.
