Well my friend, you did a great job at DBing this week, and bonded your little family closer together. So happy it went so well T.
FT is probably feeling pretty jealous and left out right now, and is pushing and pulling, putting all of her considerable heft behind it.
I'm sure your H did skip a lot of activities on their beach trip due to not feeling well. I know my H says he did on his visit with RT. He told me he felt so tired after driving all day from one destination to the next that he would hole up and sleep while she went sight seeing and it sounds exactly like something he would do as he gets so tired and cranky. (he told me that he drove her all over the north east from Niagara Falls to Washington DC in 10 days)
Your H obviously still loves you and appreciates what a good wife and mother you are. I'm glad you feel you guys are moving closer again. FT will undoubtedly continue to try to pry you back apart, but I think you're doing great and she'll be an unhappy memory soon. Imagine how she'll feel at work once they've broken up, yikes!
