Limbo is the new normal

Confluences, I wouldn't exactly call this a Christmas miracle. The first half of his trip he called and texted constantly... the second half barely a peep and always short replies. He usually calls several times on his 12 hour ride back, this time he didn't call at all and when I called to see if he was on the road he wouldn't even tell me what time he left. Something is definitely up. As I've learned it's always 1 step forward, 2 steps back. (Or 10 or 12 sometimes).

I did ask if everything was ok and he replied that we needed to talk in person. Insert ominous clouds here.

But you know what? I'm not letting his moods or feelings come between me and an awesome Christmas! Whatever he's got to say won't stop me from taking S4 months to see Christmas lights tomorrow, or from drinking fun drinks and eating yummy food on Christmas Eve, or enjoying time with my folks on Christmas Day or loving the look on my kids faces when they come back from their dads next Saturday to open presents at my place.

And to prove that I'm immune to his Debbie-downering I made sure to get up and do a dorky little dance in my kitchen, alone, when my favorite Charlie Brown Christmas song came on the radio while I was wrapping presents tonight. I highly recommend spontaneous kitchen dancing, it's so good for the soul.
