1 step forward 1000 steps back - part 4

Thanks Wonka and Barrybran.

I know you both may disagree but I ended up asking H about it. The kids were real upset and regardless of what happens between us I know H wants a strong co-parenting relationship and would want to know if he said something that bothered them. I was not angry, although I was sad and I'm sure that showed in my voice. It turns out that H did NOT say "maybe never" when the kids asked about him about coming home. We're not sure why S7 said that. H said whenever the kids ask when he's coming home he just says "I don't know". He said he wouldn't say something like that directly to them and he's going to speak to S7, if/when the time is right. He appreciated me calling him and telling him.

We chatted a bit about my camping trip and I think ended on a positive note.

So, I think the big lesson for me is: NO mindreading. Ugh! I analyze EVERYTHING (this is my natural tendency and in other areas of my life a strength), it's a really tough one to break!

I have a giant project at work that I really need to get on top of so that should be a good distraction. But man, I must say, I am tired all the time these days. I wonder if it's a side effect of the ADs? Kind of looking forward to a kid free night tomorrow night so I can rest..
