Too Little, Too Late....part 6

[purgatory]

Been really busy- more so than I thought I would be! Here are some highlights:

* MIL said that she could see the purg that H fell in love with coming back to life. THIS MADE ME FEEL SO GOOD!! If she can see it in only 2 days, hopefully H has seen it too
* I made some jewelry in my aunt's studio: a pendant that has both boys' birthstone colors on it. I was only going there to help her prepare some glass, but she taught me how to make my own piece! It was really nice to be creative for a little bit.
* I made a nice lunch for my aunt and g-ma (dad's mom). G-ma sat in the kitchen and kept me company while I cooked, and she even wrote down the recipes that I was using. I haven't talked with here one-on-one in a long time- that was a great memory.
* Got to my parent's house and was reminded how good it feels to have people love you for who you are.
* Today, I spent the day with my GG (mom's mom)**side note: I am closer to this woman than my own mom. She knows ALL my secrets- and she'll probably outlive everyone in my family because she does Yoga, pilates, and water aerobics 5 days a week- at 78 years old!!** She took me to breakfast and did a little thrift store shopping. I got some super expensive jeans for only $7 AND (the best deal of the day) and entire lady's golf club set and bag for $20! It's not the most expensive set you can buy, but it's a great brand, they are in good condition and since I'm just beginning- I figured I'll drop the big bucks if I ever get really serious about the sport!

Some interesting things happened with H too:
* Yesterday, I missed 6 phone calls and 3 texts from him while I was in the art studio. I panicked because I thought something happened with the kids. When I called back, he told me that his orders had been changed- and he calmly told me the whole story and what the new plan is. He's still going to AFG, but it got pushed to July. I told him that I appreciate him keeping me in the loop and that I was impressed how he got it resolved so quickly (there were some details that could have affected the next 5 years of his career if he didn't fix this within a 10 minute window.) This was actually a 180 for me because normally I would have gone into how *I* felt about the news, and then put the attention back on him (something that he specifically told me in MC one time.)
Why did there seem to be such an urgency to tell me this?? He could have waited until our normal phone call in the evening with the boys.... I want to see this as a positive.

* Last night, H had the boys in our house by 7 pm (2 hours earlier than he normally does) Which means he didn't hang out at OW's house.... trouble in paradise?? I didn't say anything about him being home earlier or why.

H still doesn't call me except to talk to the boys at night. I know we shouldn't have any expectations- and I've been pretty good.... part of me was hoping that after a week without me around, that he might reach out a little.

Ok, off to the movie's with my mom.... not exactly the hot date I would hope for- but at least it's with someone who loves me
