Well, H and I survived riding in the car together today for the first time since BD. We dropped D off about 90 miles away. She is going to Florida with my mom for 10 days.

We talked a good bit about various things during the trip. No R talk, which was fine. I was curious if he was going to ask me if my mom knew what was going on. But he didn't.

Things that I might have argued with him over in the past, I let go. He wanted to go buy a tool box and I told him to go get it while I helped D get settled in. In the past, I might have made a fuss because he was going off on his own, but this time, I really didn't care.

I see signs of some fog lifting, but I have no expectations at all. I know it can flip in a second. If we can make it until D comes home without any blow ups, we will be doing well.

I am going to take advantage of the time to work longer hours and get caught up at work. I also want to get back out on the white water course.
