Hi rH! It went very well. I got home yesterday and w was gone already. One of her good old friends pulled in behind me before I turned my car off. Her daughter and my boys were gone to the movies with a babysitter. So, she proceeds to tell me how honorable my actions are, how everyone sees what's going on, etc, etc. It was nice to hear. She wants to confront w but I advised her not too.
When she left I took the boys to bible school and ate supper at the church. Two other friends of w sat with me. One is the most decent, honest, moral person I know. Her and w are very close in a more aunt/niece type way. Or maybe a sister way. Anyway, she found her chance and said "she hasn't said anything to me or even acknowledged what's going on." I laughed and just said she won't but continue to be a good friend to her. Told her I was not giving up, and dropped it. She smiled and teared up so I knew what she felt. Several people asked where w was and I simply responded "I don't know." I'm not covering or making excuses anymore (thank you Bklyn and al-anon).
After supper I had a soccer coaches meeting for two hours, got back just in time to pick the boys up, then came home for the bath/bed routine. GALd with a bowl of ice cream, slept like a baby.
This morning w texted to ask how everything went, ask about my plans for the day etc. I'm working until lunch, mowing grass, hauling trash, grocery store, swimming and bible school. W is going swimming with us so, according to her, she can beat me in tanning. I didn't know it was a competition but ok. I'm very competitive so at the risk of getting skin cancer, I intend to stomp a mudhole in her butt. She then reminded me that next weekend is her four day trip to the beach. Fine by me.
One other oddity. My brother called me while I was out of town. Said w was texting with his wife all day about one of my female cousins, and that w also started following him and his daughters on Instagram. We had a good laugh about it.
So, I'm doing really well today.
