Dear Petalinthewind:

You are welcome, and it is good to read back from you no matter how long it takes you to reply. I hope that your daughter fully recovers from Covid.  I am glad that you joined a weight loss app (MyFitnessPal) and lost a few pounds, that you had a lovely day yesterday with guests and that you have a plan to go out tonight with your husband, sister and her husband.

“He is away with his wife… He asked me would I like to go and stay with them for a weekend (he does know I am lonely and helped me with stuff)” – when he suggested that you stay with him and his wife for the weekend, did he also suggest how you should explain a weekend absence to your husband? Or is it that your husband doesn’t care where you go and with whom you spend your time?
