I am trying to maintain friendly relations with X for a variety of reasons now, some long term and some short. The short term reason is that she is living in a house that I now own along with OMH as I purchased it from her in March. I agreed to let them live there until their new house is built, target date for completion is now mid August. The long term reason is that we have two children together.
So, after the big blowup over DS's birthday a couple of weeks ago, X is all sunshine and friendly of late. Sometimes this all seems like a ride at an amusment park; When I got on I had no idea how rough and long it would be. She's being so nice now it's weird.
I'm excited about being out of an apartment and back into a house I own. I've been in an apt for 3.5 years now. Typing that I didn't realize it had been that long.
I'm returning to some activities I really enjoyed years ago. I have joined a hunting club and plan to hunt a great deal this fall. I gave my son a blackpowder rifle for his bday. I've never shot one so we are learning together how to use it. He is very excited and interested and this may turn out to be a better activity for us together than I ever expected.
As far as DD, we went bra shopping together for the first time today. I'm still recovering to some degree but I believe it went well. I have no doubt she will let me know if it didn't.
