Well, our last (maybe) anniversary went off without a hitch. I picked the kids up at her place, she was irritated because she thought I was late, even though I told her I'd be there "sometime after". I just let it go and kind of laughed to myself.
On walking out the door, I told her "By the way, happy anniversary" and gave her a hug. She said "Happy anniversary" and hugged me back.
Spent the day with the kids, had a nice dinner, got the kids to bed, and then celebrated by myself with a bottle of wine. I looked at our wedding photos and remembered what a great day it was. Not sad at all, more happy at the memory of such a great party.
I noticed a message on the answering machine. It was my W, sounding a little down but who knows, saying "Hey it's me. Just thought I'd give you a call". I called her cell but she didn't pick up. I left her a message to call as I'd be up for a while, but didn't hear back from her.
The next day she stopped over to talk about some logistics around her new job. I asked if she'd gotten my message the evening before, and she said "Oh. Yeah, I was just calling to say some prayers with the kids."
I wonder.
