Divorce or Hope?

[ninelives]

Sat. Hockey developments. Imagine that , a hockey post from a guy in Canada, can you get more cliche.

Son had game today and she was working so she wasnt there. Found out today that she is back to work but on a rehab schedule because she was in the mental hospital 4 months ago. So they are gradually getting her back to a 12 houre shift.

Anyway, My BIL took me and S10 to game because my car is in the shop. When it rains it pours right. Her mother and SIL were also there. Everybody except for her. We all decided to go for lunch between games and it was like old times. The gatherings for the past 17 years with the same people except for my wife. IT was surreal for me escpecially since my SIL and I havent always seen eye to eye for a long time.

What was really strange was the MIL and me split a clubhouse sandwhich. I coach and it was cold today on the bench so SIL gives me her scarf. AFter game, I talk to MIL and she actually gives me a hug and says it was great to see me again honey. HONEY? She never once called me an endearing name the entire time I was married to her daughter. I wondered if she (MIL) is actually missing me and seeing that I wasnt such a bad guy. Maybe she regrets some of our silly misunderstandings in the past and wishes her daughter didn't take up with a loser.

Hard to say but it felt wierd. Still no contact with W for going on a week tomorrow.

Another day almost done.
