Thanks for sharing Matt. Ny h never worried about kids and never believed this would affect them. In fact he said they were better off knowing their father is happy. Ss15 even tried to reason with him in the beginning and tell him that everyone knew he loved me. That we would always embarrass the kids by being so affectionate. S told him he had been acting.

He talked about d and moving out but hasn't said anything lately. Right now I just go with the flow .. something h does not think I am capable of.

In other news I am really happy today. Sun is shining, woken up by big wet kiss from MLC dog, good music on radio all morning. Nice chat with folks at the coffee shop I go every morning. I mentioned that I was going to try a vegan diet again. I said something like "we were doing it after a cancer scare but then h left and I fell off the wagon. " not really thinking what I was saying and wondering why she was looking at me with a sad pout. When I figured it out I just thought oh yeah rhat. I am sure I will feel differently when he moves out but today I feel good.
