When I got home from work last night, the house was quiet. H and S were sleeping, I had to get something out of the car, came back in and S was standing in the kitchen pointing to a mousetrap H had set that morning..there was a mouse in it!! After our exciting lunch they both slept.
I put brats into boil for supper. H was doing things outside and came in to see if I wanted him to start the grill, which H did. We grilled out, had dinner together, then took some of S4's old toys back to my S/BIL's house. My H told me that "this isn't a social visit either" It's the first time H has been there since before the bomb..my BIL is a big mouth who frequents the same bar where H and OW hung out, knows my H's friends....so H wasn't liking him too much for awhile. Anyway they have been remodeling the house for quite awhile and are close to being done. H was invited in and we stayed for a little bit and were "social" My H has to children a boy and girl and S4 loves going there..it's his second home. Came home, had ice cream, watched TV together and went to bed. H downstairs.
This morning H was up, took the trash out, took son to his pre-school and I got to work on time, two days in a row! H is off this week because of his job and also becuase he's turkey hunting the next three days.
So last night was fine. It seems like H enjoys being with us....maybe it's just me, but he seems to genuinely like being a family H smiled about something I said, the kind of smile I haven't seen in a long time--I said a dumb blonde thing, really dumb...but H laughed.
I'm on a "me" vacation after today, taking a break from my job for some rejuvenation. I'm just going to hang out at home, do some house things, golf, relax, be selfish....S will be at daycare, H will be turking hunting. The weather is suppposed to be great!!
And, of course, talk to my friends here at the BB!
I really don't mind that H is sleeping in a different bed, gives us both a break. I get the whole bed, my books, my reading before I go to sleep.
Just taking things day by day at this point. No expectations and praying.
