Journaling:
Another solid day. I put together a team of ringers and we took home 2nd place at trivia tonight. Definitely had a fun time.

STBX called around lunchtime and D4 left a voicemail for me, saying how excited she was to spend the night at my house. I had a smile on my face ear to ear. STBX then sent me two video TMs of kids from an indoor playground. I enjoyed both immensely but didn't reply to either of these TMs.

In the evening, STBX called so that I could speak with the kids. We chatted cordially about the kids and the day she had with them. Then STBX asked if she could drop the kids off early tomorrow so that I could open up my birthday presents. I paused and nonchalantly agreed. It appears that STBX made an effort to celebrate my birthday tomorrow. I think my approach will be to remain friendly, confident, and appreciative. I will express my gratitude yet keep busy. I plan to be engaged but not magnetized to STBX.

Any other ideas or suggestions?
