Good morning! Yesterday turned out to be a lovely day. Spent the afternoon in the used bookstore -it's huge- and dinner at d12's favorite restaurant. My mom tagged along and we all had a good time.
Claire, honestly, it would be nice to think there was some guilt there. Some emotion of some sort at least. He's the biggest ice cube ever. But I do need to remember it's not really about me these days. He will do what he will do and who knows why.
Zeus, I'm a really strong independent woman who can take care or herself but wants confirmation that I'm valued and cherished. I used to say "just because I can take care of myself doesn't mean I want to". In a way, I trained him to treat me the way he does because I took care of myself but never demanded or even asked for the second part. Should a husband have offered up some caring to his wife? Yes, but I never called him on it when I had the chance. Now it's way too late for that.
Bob, I always appreciate your positive posts!
I take d12 to camp this afternoon. I have plans with various relatives and friends the rest of the week.
