HaWho, it is not belated yet. Sorry, I failed to mention that my B-day is a few days away.

Thanks everyone for the B-day wishes though. And I will take the advice and thank H for the gift.

FY, not sure if I'm going to go all the way like you suggested though, LOL. I will have to think about that…

bttrfly, I’m not sure if I’m in DB mode anymore anyway, and I do have the same opinion as your Mother. I always say that it is “better late than never”.

Sotto, this did make think some… But, I’m not slowing down in moving forward.

Job, I wonder sometimes what H remembers. He definitely remembers my lipstick color, LOL. I’m just curious if they also remember the “bad” things in the marriage and how they felt when they decided to leave.

Ciluzen, it is definitely sweet of H to do this.

Yet… I’m still not sure if it was a temperature check on H’s part, or he just felt like that, or he was drunk and not thinking clearly… Just the fact that the package was addressed to him and not me is kind of interesting. I keep thinking of different reasons why he did it. He was not sure if it was ok… he didn’t feel comfortable doing this… he wanted to create some surprise effect… he wanted to know when I would open the package (as I would ask him about it first – which I did)… IDK. But, more I think about it, more I feel that there is some message behind it, which I cannot figure out yet. The choice of the gift is interesting too.

Anyway, I’m at the vacation home now. Met with my friends (mutual friends). They are throwing a party for my B-day tomorrow. This is so nice of them. I’m so grateful that I have such wonderful friends.
