Get me on a smoother ride....need advice - part 3

[SueS]

Good morning-

lwb....I leave for home in 4 hours and I'm trying to relax and think of not only how this is a needed break for H & I, but how excited D3 is that we're going to Grandma & Grandpa's house. It makes me feel really good the way that they get along. Considering the fact that we've never lived close to them (12 hours previously & now 5 hours apart), she is very close to them. My mom says that D3 is like her shot of energy.

We called H last night at work so D3 could talk to him. He asked what was going on & I said just getting our stuff ready for the weekend & cleaning up a bit. I said D3 wanted to talk to you before she went to bed. He said oh she did? In a tone of...was it really her or you that wanted to call. I said, yeah, she was asking to talk to you. I went into the other room while they talked. D3 called for me telling me that H wanted to talk to me, but she'd shut the phone. I called him back and asked if he was finished talking to her. He said yes, but I asked her to put you back on the phone. He said, all I wanted to say was that I'll see you later. I said, oh, okay then, I'll see you in a little bit, He said...okay.

H typically gets home at about 9:30. He came in around 10:40. I had sat up crying and wondering what he was up to and then I realized, there's nothing I can do about it right now. I decided to go to bed. It wasn't long after that when I heard H come home. He didn't do his typical computer surfing. Just seemed to go out and watch tv and eat. He came to bed later & wanted to be intimate, which I allowed. Later, H got up and went to watch tv. I got up with him. I probably shouldn't have, but I asked him what he did after work. He said that he'd forgotten his phone at work and had to go back to get it. I told him that I was going to bed and then said....honey, you need to start getting more sleep, you haven't been sleeping much lately. He slept close all night and let me snuggle with him. It felt good.

This morning I got up, grabbed our stuff to put it in the vehicle. I woke H up before I left. I said....Have a good weekend, be safe. He lifted his head up and pursed his lips for a kiss. I gave him a kiss, said I love you and I'll talk to you a little later.

H's behavior last night and this morning was different.....quiet, but not angry.

Well, time to work so I can get out of here soon.
