So...that was weird. My H texted me at 4:00 that he was done with his work and needed to clean up and would it be too problematic for him to drop by after. I told him it was up to him as the kids and I were just hanging out. He showed up about an hour later. Said “hi” to the kids and spent about five minutes with them. He then spent almost an hour “chatting” with me about various things including some horror movies on Netflix he thought I should watch. Huh? Not a chance. Anyway... as suddenly as he appeared, he said he needed to go to check on our boat. Hugged the kids “good-bye” and came back into the living room where I was and sat back down for a couple minutes. He then got up and said he would see me in the morning. I didn’t get up. So he did an awkward wave goodbye and off he went. I don’t have the slightest clue why he showed up. He hasn’t done that before. Typically he stays away with little to no contact.

Talking to him is so bizarre these days. It’s like we are having a conversation but neither of us are actually talking about what is really on our minds. So we have this awkward superficial exchange like two acquaintances would have. The good news is that, unlike a couple of weeks ago, his leaving didn’t hurt me or affect my mood. I’m just taking each day as it comes and not going to read too much into it.
