M - I like the elf idea. I may steal it this week. I am running out of good ideas.

Today was pretty uneventful. It was our family day. I knew H went out last night with his single buddy. I did not ask about it and he did not mention it. In the past I would have trouble sleeping if I knew H was out. I had no problem sleeping last night. I guess that gal helps in more way than one. H was kind of quiet all day. He had planned to make a movie of our elf in the self with the boys. The kids lost interest after a bit but h spent the majority of the day on it . I headed out alone for a few hours because I really did not feel like spending time with h today. I knew that H would still act reserved because of his phone call on Thursday and I was right.

I have been thinking about the phone call and what h said and I actually think that he was speaking from his heart. I don't really think it was the alcohol talking. Although I am sure the alcohol helped drop the wall he has built up. It is so weird to have him be vulnerable and let me into his thoughts for a short time and then watch him rebuild those walls right back up. I won't see h again until Thursday so I think things should normalize a bit by then.
