I forgot to say that last night sis and I were IMing, and she started saying derogatory things about H and his relatives, and I just ignored them, pretended I was distracted by something my end and didn't respond to her digs. I know that last year I vented away to sis about things, this was mostly before knowing about DB and stuff. I now see how utterly unconstructive it is (in fact destructive), so I avoid it as much as I can. I cannot be in the right frame of mind to GAL and forgive H and be good to myself and H if I am constantly raking up H's misdemeanors and talking him down to third parties.
I have realised this, no matter how "DESERVING" (by their "BAD" behaviour) of our bad/angry/ill tempered responses our spouses are, if we continually make our Ms an unwelcoming place to be, then our spouses will look elsewhere. And that's what happened.
This morning, H rings and says he has his appointment with the doctor at four o'clock tomorrow. He is coming down to the city and wants to take D out for lunch from school, will I let her teacher know? I said, OK. Then he says, do you want to come too? I said, OK! Then H says, by the way, I am having another mail order package delivered to your address, so if it comes by tomorrow, will you bring it along with you? I must have sounded a little questioning in my pause, 'cause he says, it is too difficult to change the delivery address from what it was. Really??
So, let's see what tomorrow brings!
