Thanks all my good friends. Honestly could not be here without you.
So, some further progress today.
I had the day off work today, and this morning my H decides to take the day off with me. How nice is that? So we enjoyed a lazy morning after the kids went to school.
Kids got out of school early today, so H suggest we go for a drive into the hills. He suggests we go to the same place he and I went to have a big R talk at the end of August. That was a heart-breaking, devestating day for me as it was when he spent hours giving me all the reasons he thought we were not meant to be together and why we should consider D. He knows how awful that day was for me.
So, I knew he was suggesting we go there purposefully to "re-claim" it with positive family time.
We had a great day!
I had a few difficult moments... going to the same places where painful words were spoken. At one particular spot, we both remembered how different it was 7 months ago. We stood in that spot and I asked for a hug. 7 months ago I was weeping in that spot while he stood apart from me with a cold, hard face. Now, we hugged as the kids and dogs ran around beside us laughing and enjoying the beautiful day.
We 4x4'd with the truck in the mud, worked on teaching S15 to drive, and went hiking in the hills. Lots of laughs, lots of good memories made.
Now that place has good memories that outshine the bad.
