Another busy day. My last group of friends had to cancel this evening's dinner due to illness, and I was actually grateful, I think I took too much on!
I played with D this evening, made her something using my sewing machine, and I helped her make a personalised advent calendar for her whole class, by buying one, cannibalising it and sticking the little chocolates behind her drawing. She said to me more than once yesterday and today, she is so happy that she has a Mum who helps her with things, who is "artitic" etc., unlike some of her friends' Mums! I lapped up the appreciation!
I am planning a getaway weekend for us this weekend with friends up in a snowy mountain place! Should be good!
I visited a site that H posts to, there are forums about our shared interest. I have noticed that he often posts things that are in fact things I have said to him over the years! Of course he doesn't credit these things! I realise how much I have influenced him, in ways he hasn't quite acknowledged to me. It really disproves his contention that we had a "miserable" marriage.
So, he takes out D for lunch tomorrow from school.
I will email him about Christmas plans in a few days' time. In the past, whenever I have tried to pin him down to dates for the holidays, he says I am trying to control him. This time I am going to wait for him to tell me what he wants. Of course he then will be vague, time will pass, when I get agitated about wanting to make my plans, he will tell me I am controlling him. I have already had one invite for Christmas, which I would take up were I to be on my own. And if I do, I plan to be mysterious about it too!
That's it from me!
