Positively moving forward

Most of my anger isn't about the past per se, but more about how the present is like the past. The half truths or secrecy and disrespect, but I think of him like I do my old friends whom I didn't get along with well.

Pick-up was weird yesterday. He sat down to wait on S which he hasn't done in a couple months. It didn't bother me, but then he starts telling me how he might get rift because numbers at his school are down and he has least seniority. Normally I would reassure him and tell him it will all be ok because he is a good teacher, etc but this time I listened and said that is a bad situation and due to new state legislation, but didn't advice or give the reassurance.

I was going to let XH have pictures after my family chose, but S wanted him to get some right away so I let XH pick out what he wanted, one of everything, which included the picture of just S and I. It was strange. I didn't get many of those so I asked XH to put them back because I only got some for my family. He said ok, but it was weird. Why would he want a pic of S and I?

So it was strange. Not bad but strange.
