The furniture saga continues. I talked to them several times today, they kept insisting "If it's a problem we deliver it NOW!" and I had to say "No I want to CANCEL it. I am AT WORK NOW, the problem is you not calling in advance, or delivering it when you said you would!" Back and forth, back and forth... long story short they get one more chance (barely). I will look at it in the store tomorrow night as they FINALLY set it up for me as they agreed to weeks ago.. if it's OK they'll deliver it by noon Sat. If they don't, I told them I'm disputing it at 12:01. I was going to be home anyway working on my room, so I'm not having to go out of my way. Not a huge issue in the grand scheme of life but what a PITA.

In H related news.. been a funny week. Last weekend was his crazy "all nighter" party followed by a day of sleeping followed by helping his WAS sister move (also somewhat preceded by me pretty much letting go and moving on). This week? Every night... H is home early, in bed by 9:00-9:30 (our normal bedtime is/was around 10-10:30)... no texting that I'm aware of (I'm not snooping but he's not rushing to hide the phone, it's either off and on the charger or in his car all the time). And TONS of questions about where I've been, who with, etc. Oh and I cooked dinner for myself earlier this week and offered to share - it turned out VERY good and I had a lot of leftovers. He's been raving about it every night.

Tonight in particular was funny. I went out shopping for a baby shower on Sun. I got home with the gift, wrapping stuff, and some house cleaning supplies. H asked what was up with the "baby stuff" and we talked a bit about it, he said "Oh, some baby shower I don't know about?" That cracked me up... especially since it's for a mutual friend! I said "Yeah on Sunday." He kept acting funny about it so I said "Why, did you want to go?" [it's a SHOWER, it's a girlie thing, hello??]. He said "No.. I have class." All serious like he wanted to go or something.. it was just funny.

Then he mentioned the cleaning stuff, and I said I was happy to have some better shower cleaning supplies (which is true.. granted I got them to clean out my new shower, but I'm glad to have a telescoping scrubber thing either way). He then mentioned how he noticed the blinds I put in.. but didn't say a lot about it. Just that they looked really nice. He half asked/half questioned "So, making the back room look nice..." It wasn't an actual question so I didn't answer.

Yes, I probably should have actually talked to him about it but.. for now, it just feels good to be doing things for me, feel like I know what the heck is going on, and maybe make HIM wonder what's going on for a change.
