Today was, I have to say, probably the best day I've had since the BD.

I woke up with this sense that, no matter what, all will be well.

I made a pitcher of green smoothie, started some laundry, cleaned the house like I haven't in ages.

Took a shower and packed a bag, then - not knowing or caring whether my WW was coming home for the weekend like she said she would, then said she wouldn't, then said she might - took a two hour drive east to visit a tiny home that I'd seen advertised online. The drive was absolutely perfect... in my convertible, just amazingly non humid, pleasant weather on back roads. I decided to just soak up the minutes and the joy of the moment. The house was cool, but the drive was better.

Then I drove three hours southwest to get to my mom's, and we had a great dinner, good time on the porch drinking wine and Skyping with a mutual friend, and in the midst of it, I had a brief conversation on the phone with my W about one of our properties. She wanted to know if I was home. So I guess she isn't, either. "Things are so busy," she said.

I couldn't have cared less. In bed now, thankful for a day where I was imagining a future instead of dwelling on what I've lost from the past. All will be well... for me, and for all of you.
