Well, just keeping busy and keeping the kids busy until H comes in an hour.
Then I'll know how he is feeling after this morning's encounter. It shouldn't be a big deal, but he and I have become master conflict avoiders over the past few years so time will tell.
Since the bomb, I have begun telling him when something is up - some of the time, as I pick my words and topics carefully. But while he shares frustrations on occasion, he doesn't do it often.
Wish me luck!
Thanks again. I'll keep you posted.

I just wanted to stop by and say thanks for your input at my place yesterday. You were right on the money, and I just wanted to tell you I appreciate it.
Keep smiling...

Well gang, H came over last night. I was in laundry room folding clothes. He came in and I wasn't sure what his mood would be like toward me.
Well, as he walked away, I playfully comment on being cold and he got playful right back. That lasted while he was here. He didn't take kids anywhere except S3 on on errand. Then he gave me a ride to pick up my MIL's car so I could use it today while my truck gets fixed.
So - whew! It went well, our episode didn't send him running. I didn't mention it at all and neither did he, but we did talk about my truck a bit so it wasn't like we avoided the topic all together.
Yeah for us - big step!
Have to run to get house and dinner ready for D9 birthday - we are finally having it (her birthday was the 19th)
Hope to catch up with more of you later or tomorrow!
