Hey K... wow, I just read both threads.. seems like you were detaching even back then! This bit, on your birthday last year was telling wasnt it "He said he realised he needs to work on himself and that he has left these 3 months pass without doing much on himself and his personal problems. He said "she is already at 100 and I am still at 1" (progress)
He said the kids can wait one -or two more months until he comes back or decides and she told him that the kids should suffer only if this period is used for a good purpose: him to take care of his s$$t."
..OMG! He finally got started by a year later. Last year he called you 8 times and left you the silver shoes on the table (thats bad luck my Mum says! - shoes on the table). I wonder if you will hear from him this year?
Our stars today !!!.... You have a chance now to rebuild your love life, somehow. If you're one of the Pisceans who feels they've been oh-so-patient where your partner is concerned, it should be around about now that you start to sense your patience is paying off. If you're starting to wonder if your partner (or ex) is worth the effort, don't stop wondering. Be brutally honest with yourself! And if you feel like you're about to restructure your relationship so it includes more commitment? Guess what? You're probably right! Just keep doing what you do.
Ali, he called 4 times and I answered the 4th. He said Happy Birthday and I said thank you. He then asked me playfully "how do you feel?" I said ok. He answered "you should, you dont look like 38". It was the first compliment I have heard for a while. I thanked him. Then we talked about the awful night I had with the kids yesterday. They were crying, begging, threatening me (you will not marry another man cause we will leave you), telling me how unhappy they are, how they feel unlucky, the only kids in the world that their parents split etc etc. Lets just say, it felt like December 07... Not a good way to end a day.
Last year I wished this birthday would be better. I guess, I'll wait for next year... Love K
K .. you're so funny (and brillian!) if that were me, it wouldnt have even got to 4 rings, neverlone him calling 4 times.. I would have done some kind of Olympic lunge across the table, grabbed my bag, violently shook it upside down to tip eveything out to look for my phone and would have been prostrate on my knees surrounded by lose change, makeup, used tissues etc and just managed to compose myself by the time I answered to nonchantly say "Hi... " But... at least he was persistent.
I am sorry you had such a bad night with the kids.. is that because they spent a long weekend with H and then they twigged that this is how its going to be from now on? Funny he paid yuo a compliment.. FOR GODS SAKE!!!! Last time you spoke he was talking about lawyers and divorce papers, but I guess that isnt what he really wants, deep down.
Here are some more stars for us, for today...
Just remember that you have a past too, when judging close ones over recent mistakes they have made with their lives. You may also want to remember the old proverb, that pardon is the choicest flower of victory.
2010 will be a good birthday year.. Jupiter will be conjuncht the Sun in Pisces (this is a good thing).

I am glad that he DID call you today, but am even happier that you picked up the phone. What a beautiful compliment he gave you!
Hon, the babies are hurting. Be patient with them. Yes, I know you hate that word, but somehow, when it applies to our children, we can suck it up in the name of mother's love.
Enjoy the rest of the day and know that you are loved well, both by your family and your friends both in real life and virtual.
Send up prayers and good thoughts that DH will remember my birthday on Sunday.

Love never gives up, never loses faith, is always hopeful, and endures through every circumstance. I Corinthians 13:7
I'm sorry the kids are taking it so hard.... you know it isn't your fault. You are the one that gets to hear it, because you are the one they see. And they can talk to you, so they blame you. HUGS!
But... at least he was persistent.
