Thank you, Bee, for such a nice post. I did have some cocoa before bed last night with you. I am somewhat addicted to anything chocolate, so that was a great idea.

I did go over to a friend's house yesterday. She had planned out a tapas style meal that we could graze on and talk. She had told me as soon as I knew when the mediation would be that she was putting it on the calendar and having me over afterward. Very thoughtful. We had a nice time.

Near the end of our evening, D25 called. She hadn't spoken to H since she arrived back from her trip and gave him a call. She said he was acting "weird" and then found out about the fact that we had concluded our mediation and would be D soon. She said he just kept telling her he was worried about me and was sad about hurting me. She then said she was worried that I was sitting in a dark apartment talking to my dog. Funny thing was, I was ok and told her that. Thank you DB friends and MWD for the coping tools and perspective. I know she was worried and very surprised and sad herself, so I told her that H and I had agreed to make holidays and events easier on both girls by not splitting them. She was very relieved to hear that we were able to talk afterward.

Now to see how work goes today...I think I'll be ok.
