I haven't posted in a couple of weeks. In that time, I attended my son's graduation and my daughter got very sick. We have been to different doctors and emergency rooms and a week in bed. I'm exhausted. She is finally feeling better so I thought I should let my H know that our D had been sick. I emailed him and to my surprise, he actually answered my email. I really thought he would only answer my D back. He even tried to call my cell. He is out of the country and doesn't always have access to a phone. I did not talk to him because I was at work and didn't see his call. He did leave a VM, but it was very impersonal. Of course he never asked how I was doing- not that I expected that. NO EXPECTATIONS.
The funny thing is that I am so sad today. When you don't have contact everyday, you kind of move forward with your life and then BAM they just come back in as if nothing happened.
In addition to our D getting sick, my H's father is dying of cancer. He did mention that the doctor only gave him days to live. And my H is working. The first line of his email was thanking me for the info and how his work was going- not about how our D was doing. To me it was odd. I would never have even mentioned my work. That job is the love of his life. Having my own little pity party today.
I'm going to have a good cry and a glass of wine and go to bed early tonight in that order.
Feeling sad and defeated for the first time in a long time.
