I'm doing better. Working, even only 4 measly hours at a time at a mall retail store helps me keep my mind on anything but my situation thus elimination my overthinking capabilities. That has helped immensely.

I have to admit though, it's confusing. H has to go to court tomorrow for a fix-it ticket he never followed up with so to avoid the $1500 ticket he has to drive 2.5 hours to be in court at an ungodly early time.

Tonight is his weekday night with D but he asked if he could put her to bed at my place because he has to get up so early tomorrow. I said no prob. D wasn't feeling well tonight so he brought her over, made her soup, put her in pajamas and they relaxed while I went to a super intense, hard-core yoga class.

I came home and he'd emptied the dishwasher, cleaned the two dishes that were in the sink, washed their dinner dishes, soup pot, etc and loaded the dishwasher, cleaned the counters and made D's lunch for school tomorrow.

WHA?!

He never did stuff like that before let alone this well and now he's doing it while we're separated?? It's confusing.

Don't get me wrong, I appreciate it and tell him so. It's very kind of him and incredibly self-less.

He's not a chore doer. Like, not at all. Why is he doing my dishes? Is this a test to see if I'll be appreciative? Am I reading into something I shouldn't?

Does your WAS do your dishes? Tidy the kitchen? Empty your dishwasher?

I'm aghast. Happy about it but aghast. What am I to make of these kind gestures?

Be strong enough to let go and wise enough to wait for what you deserve.
