i had such a great day!! played personal shopper for my gf by picking out stuff she would not normally pick out for herself but she ended up loving! we didn't do the multiple thrift shops in the funky area of town (it was pouring and then turned to slushy rain!) but went to a thrift store that was closing out and everything %50 off! ended up buying 3 pairs of jeans, a skirt and a dress for the kids.. and bought myself a pair of jeans and 2 tops (one w/ tags still on!) all for $16!! totally thrilled!
afterwards, headed over to my nice stable friend's place. played w/ her kids.. chatted w/ her H.. interesting conversation w/ him. her H has known my H for the entire length of our M. he was at my H's bachelor party etc. tonight he says to me.. "you know i love you right?" i'm thinking.. ok, he's going to tell me to smarten up because H is never going to come to his senses etc. but what he says is this.. "you know there's going to come a point where he asks to come home". i mentioned that i really didn't see H showing any signs of remorse for leaving or any indication that he wanted to come home.
anyway, he is convinced that my H will eventually want to come home because he feels H hasn't thought through the financial ramifications.. the long term effects etc.. how i can make a whole lot more money then him.. wow. i really wasn't sure why he seems so convinced of this because i just don't see it.
my gf and i ended up at a coffee shop after her kids went to bed. over coffee she says.. hey, do you want to go on a date w/ K when we're in victoria? this is a guy who i had recently mentioned i had thought was super cute at their wedding. i suddenly got all nervous!! part of me thinks.. heck ya! he's still super cute and i would totally love to feel that excitement again. but a big part of me is so scared because i don't think i'm ready to go there yet or do something i may regret. i am still hoping for a positive outcome here! eek!
2 more sleeps until i see my kids! i will be so happy to see them but, after fridays interaction w/ H, am nervous to see if he has another big bomb. i better put my DB armour back on before stepping through that door....
