Lost, sounds like you pushed through and made it a good weekend. Good luck with your appointment today!! And good for you for buying a new couch.
You don't have to tell people anything you don't want to about your H or your sitch. I am 5 months since BD, and there are still times where if someone asks where my H is, and I know where he is, I'll just say that. If I don't know, I might say, "I'm not sure," or "he didn't come tonight." Or if people ask where the kids are, I say, "they are with H."
There are certain people (and times and places) where I just don't feel comfortable sharing the real story.
