He got here just as I was finishing up my last post so had to hurry and sign off! He came in with a snail shaped planter with a plant in it for D11 who loves snails. He said he found it at Goodwill when he was there looking for clothes! That is a first for him...shopping at Goodwill for clothes! Of course both kids were here so we did go into the other room. He asked me how I was doing and I said "I am doing fine" and he asked about the kids and I said that they seem to be doing ok. He then went on to say that "this sucks" and I told him that I expected this to happen and that I thought he was looking for an excuse to leave and found one. Then he said that "he didn't want me to hate him and he didn't want to hate me" huh? I did tell him that I still want to work on our marraige but that I would not live in an open marraige any longer. One of the kids walked in so that was the end of the conversation. The kids and I did help him with the wood but then I had to leave to go to the movie. Apparently he left shortly after that. S14 asked him if he could stick around a little longer (thought he would since I was gone) but he said he better get going. Think S14 was pretty disappointed. Both kids commented on that we were nice to each other. He did tell me to not be afraid to call him if we needed anything.
Now, I am thinking I should not call unless it is absolutely something to do with the kids?
RW- I love what you wrote and want to use it but should I wait for him to call or the next time he comes by? BTW-I did talk with DIL today. She cried along with me. She will tell my SS27. She has promised to not say anything to H's sisters. I think it is up to H to tell his family!
Well, going to go watch Marley and Me with my kids!!!
