Anna/KDK/golfer - Thanks for the support. Am seeing bits and pieces of positives with H. H drove interstate last night for his interview this morning. He called me while on the road, and he stayed over at a friend's place and called me from there too. Called me this morning twice (and it's only 10.00 am over here) and also sent me a couple of messages over my mobile. He talked about some friends that I know of. I think he is TRYING hard to get back to normality?
My DBing Goals now are modified on a day-to-day basis. We are going for a premiere of "Batman Begins" tonight, and I think a mini-goal is for him to attend as well. My ILs will be there, and I think he still feels awkward facing them. It's a hurdle that he needs to get over - to face his beloved mom again. Actually, during our trip, his mom called my mobile, and the boys were shouting "It's grandma. It's grandma" and my MIL heard him say to the boys "pass the phone to mom, pass the phone to mom". My MIL commented to my mom that he was there and he wouldn't even answer the phone and talk to her. I do think he has GREAT GUILT issues that he needs to get over before he can face his mom. H told me that his interview may be till quite late, and if he takes about 3 hours to drive back, he wouldn't be able to make it to the premiere...
The other mini-goal that I have would be for him to want to have a get-together for his birthday with our mutual friends. He did briefly ask if I was gonna have something on for his birthday the other day at our adult get-together..So, I will ask him when he gets back.
One bummer thing that happened on the trip was that I lost my black/white diamond ring. SHUCKS! Must have slipped off when I jumped from the boat into the water for snorkling, or could be when I was digging the sand at the beach with the boys. Regardless...it's a bummer.
