FM, in cases of infidelity, I don't know if it ever will feel normal to interact with your exH! Even a good friend of mine, who is happy with her boyfriend, still admits she loves her exH, He is with OW. It is weird for her to see them together. She is able to be "friends" with him and has forgiven him, though. Of course she wasn't able to forgive him until she found a new love interest.
She has been with her current boyfriend for the last 5 years.
On a different note, I have strep throat! I am so bummed that I might have passed it on to S-- I totally just thought I had a sore throat at first, but by the time I went to bed on Wed night, I knew it had to be strep--due to the fever! Thank God for ibuprofen to keep the fever at bay....
So I took S into daycare, wearing my PJ's and then asked exH if he could take him overnight. I was hoping to pick him up today, but I went in and got tested for strep. They say you are contagious for the first 24-48 hours after starting antibiotics. ExH said he would take him overnight again and I just miss S sooo much!! But I will take him Saturday overnight. ExH is going to bring him by right after dinner (I offered earlier but he suggested bed time in order to give me more time to rest) I settled for after dinner so I can play with him for a little bit before we get ready for bed. It will be almost 3 days since I saw him last (if you count 20 minutes in the morning before I took him to daycare).
Hopefully the penicillin will start to do its magic so I can get some decorating done tomorrow. Seriously, I don't think I will be motivated next Tues p.m. when S is with exH next, so I better do something soon! Of course if I feel like total [censored] I will just put my wreath on the door and call it good I did buy those hooks for my gutters, though....I admit that I want to shock exH by putting up the lights myself!
