That little engine that will ...

[MeMyselfandI]

Just finishing up my update from last weekend. The next morning, H came to the room to pick up kids for breakfast and we did not speak. I packed up while they went for breakfast and when the kids came back, S and I did some shopping while D went with her friend and then we headed to the rink for gold medal game. It was great game, kids won. H's grandparents were there and I spoke to them briefly following the game while trying to organize what kids were doing next. It was a little chaotic as our D was going shopping and couldn't find her wallet. Once we solved that problem, off she went and H and I stood talking to his grandparents for a bit till S got impatient and wanted to go. It was a friendly chat and just as I said good bye to them, H asked me where S and I were going so I told him which mall I was taking S to because it had an apple store and I wanted to see if it was worth fixing S's ipod touch. H suggested the mall he was going to also had an apple store but I mentioned this one was closer to the airport and off we went.

On our way to the airport, we ran into H and coach friend at the gas station and then again at the rental place while we were dropping off our vehicles. H offered to take one of the kids hockey bags as he only had one suitcase. I thanked him and S and I went to check in. Didn't really see or speak to him again until we got off the plane. I was outside at the airport and H came out to ask if my boarder was coming to pick me up to which I said yes and asked if he needed me to take the kids hockey bags and drop them off at his place. He asked if they could actually get a ride, (coach included) to coach’s place as his truck was there and I agreed.

We were civil all day, although we didn’t speak much and there was never any mention of what had happened with D the night before. I think H may have felt guilty for how he reacted. Something tells me there is more to his reaction with our D and I think it may have to do with how I was intereacting with his friend (coach). I think his insisting that I stay in the room to supervise D had more to do with keeping me out of the room where everyone was socializing. I could be way off base and really it doesn’t matter in end.
