Had a nice visit with my second son yesterday, spent a couple hours just floating and chatting in the lagoon by his apartment. Sadly, a big chunk of the conversation was about how fraught his relationship with his father is. It’s really sad, and although my ex made a concerted effort not to be like his own father when he was younger, he has pretty much turned into him anyway it seems.

Going today to visit with some old high school friends. Nice to have friends who have known me since age 14!
