It's been a tough 48 hours in Gal522's world. H has our kids while I'm traveling for work. Had to have some tough convos with H about kids--I requested pics of kids not be shared on his social media because we have too many stranger's approaching us while we're out. It ended simply with "okay"--he says he just wants peace and positivity and I agree. I thanked him for observing my request. Coincidentally, H will be speaking at the conference I'm attending in a few days. I'm truly dreading seeing him. When I have no contact, I find it's easier to put one foot in front of the other. When we have any interaction I find myself getting emotional, reflecting too much. I need to detach.
