Yesterday was MUCH better. A positive day where things felt back to normal. Things started off by me waking up at about 10 again and then he was asleep while D4 watched Shrek. I said, "Why don't you go lie down on our bed where it's quiet?" He said ok and slept until around noon again. I put the kids down for an early nap around 11 and hopped in the shower. When I got out, I told him he should get in the shower while both kids were still asleep, but he was laying around watching Discovery Channel. I could tell he resented me saying something. He kind of said, "I'll do it in a minute," looking out of the corners of his eyes. Instead of getting mad, I said what I was really thinking, "I thought if you got your shower taken and the kids were still asleep, you and I could have some alone time." That was all I had to say! He said ok, and hopped into the shower. We had nice, playful, positive, fun sex. It seemed to connect us all day long.
We went to a nature center and it was a fun day for the whole family. At one spot in the park, there was an observation tower and I asked, "Does this remind you of anything?" He said no and I said it looks kind of like the place where you proposed to me. I told Mari a little about it and a moment later, he gave me a great, lingering kiss.
He did make some comments that I did not like, thinking he was being funny. I'm embarrassed to even post them, because as stupid as they are, they sound even worse out of context. Anyhow, first D4 was "reading" a map in the backseat, helping us find the park. She said, "What's in the pink?" referring to the map. Joey answered her, then said, "Daddy was in the pink earlier," under his breath to me. I thought that was kind of immature, but kind of funny. Then he said, "I'm gonna be in the brown later." All I could do was look at him, albeit with a little half smile on my face, like, "I can't believe this is your idea of humor."
The next comment was when we were laying in bed together after the kids were asleep. We were watching Survivorman, where the guy was living on roasted lizards, and I was saying, "I would just be dead if I were stranded like that." He said, "Not if you were with me," and we held hands. I said, "You're right, that would make me feel a lot better." Then he said, "You could live on my spunk, I hear it's got a lot of calories." He CRACKED UP, and I just looked at him again, with a half smile, like, Whatever.
So, tell me, how would YOU react to these comments? Am I just being a prude?
Anyhow, tonight is his IC session. I hope he is able to make some progress towards his 1992 issues. Mine is in the morning.
I just kissed him gbye and it was really a positive morning. A fly on the wall would think nothing is wrong.
