H sent flowers w/ card signed "love name" Wed. so I could enjoy them here at the beach this week. He called tonight to wish happy bd. Ticked the florist delivered a day late. Casual talk @ general stuff like his trip woes(travel for work) and kid stuff. Seemed guilty/dismayed?? that I was alone today.

On the lighter side I did convey that I had a great day at beach. Who needs you? He loves it here and told me half choked up that he was going to miss me when I saw him the day before I left. So that's why he spent time w/ OW that weekend and hasn't contacted me all week, right?

Got phone calls from all 3 kids, and email from other friends and family today, so that was comforting.

Treated myself to a sundae at the ice cream store. Not much on the island for bakery stuff, Jack, but did take you up on your suggestion!
