Weekend was interesting. Wife got back home Friday. We cooked out Fri night, then she went to tan(Looks are very important these days) while I played with kids. She was on/off phone most of night, so little interaction between us.
Sat AM, I went to get haircut and when I get back W and D9 are arguing. D is entering "too independent" stage--she and W disagree alot. W had told her she was not going to stay if D9 didn't start treating her better. D crying, saying she knew we fight alot because of her. I really was not happy about putting that on D--later in night W apologized to me about saying it to D(I had not brought it up). Said she was just frustrated with the ATTITUDE(I reminded her it would likely be there for years).
Well we went to our party w/o kids. I thought all was good. We had some drinks. We had good discussions about her weight loss/life changes with friends. I had a positive feeling about night. But when we went to bed, I went to kiss her and got the head duck/forehead offered only. Nothing loving or intimate at all. Not expecting to ML or anything yet--just wish I felt some warmth.
As I said last week, friendship seems better, but still no sign of acting like a married couple. Anniversary (13) comes next Mon--she doesn't want to do anything for it. I'll tell you--it's hard to go to Hallmark and find a "lukewarm" anniversary card. Do have plan for Dinner out with family on Sun for Mother's Day. It's the traditional Japanese Steakhouse (kids stay well entertained and food always good). Maybe I'll have something more positive to post then.
