Had a good day yesterday -- PMA was higher than it's been in a long time. Wasn't hard to think of 3 things to post about...
1. H sent me emails while I was in class. I've mentioned before that school nights are tough for me because H and ow used to get together during that time. I don't know if he was doing it consciously or not (to alleviate my residual concerns/anxieties) but it makes me feel REALLY good when H. lets me know that he's home by sending me emails.
2. H. forwarded me a mail about the "guys night" he's going to tonight.
You may remember a week or so ago I had a mini-rant because H was going to do two social events with "the guys" who were the same social circle that ow belongs to. The rant wasn't about him going out but that he didn't tell me whether she was going to be there. WELL, guess I should be more patient...a few days after the rant he told me WHO was going to be at the first event (an event which never happened) AND last night he forwarded me the email regarding tonight's get together. ow was not on the list.
Again, don't know if he's doing this consciously or not.
Other thing that makes the email forwarding thing special is that it breaks a bit of the "secretiveness" surrounding H and email. Cool
3. H apologized for a fight that we had over the weekend. We couldn't find our second walkman over the weekend when we were headed out to a bball game. I am VERY organizationally challenged when it comes to the house -- I am a clutterer, my crap is ALL over the place. One of the things I'm trying to do is reduce my STUFF. Anyway, we couldn't find the walkman and H. felt it was my fault -- he told me that "this is exactly the kind of thing that makes me angry". Now, this assertion is actually a GOOD thing in my book -- H almost NEVER TELLS (!!) me when something is peeving him so I loved the fact that he was this straightforward about it. I took the criticism well, apologized for my disorganization and told him I'd try to do better.
WELL, turns out the walkman was under some stuff that H. had moved around. He told me last night: "I have to apologize to you for something". Very good stuff. I'm liking the upfrontness of hubby.
Got a nice LONG weekend coming up here! Tonight I'm meeting a gaggle of local DB'ers for dinner so I'm psyched about that. Got a baseball game in my future, watching my brother in a road race, hopefully a movie or dinner or something as a fun date, too.
