B...before I answer your questions I'll recap what happened when went downstairs AFTER I wrote this last post.

He was all cold again. Not angry, just not looking at me. I decided to go out with S and let H spend his day with D here at the house. He barely said a word to me before I left and when I said see ya...he said nothing. He's hot and cold! Of course this is all textbook midlife crisis stuff (in his case 'early transitional life crisis)...it amazes me how textbook his behaviour is.

Anyway, I called around 4 to see how she was after her nap and found out that she woke up from her nap and had a "great big yucky tummy notso solid poop" in her bed. And I hadn't put a diaper on her before her nap (she's just about fully potty trained). I only give the gorry details because I just find such comfort in knowing that he had to clean it up!!! I've spent the last 3 days doing this along with the baby in tow and it was nice to know he had to deal with the s%*t too!! Of course he wasn't impressed with me because I was the one that didn't put the diaper on her...oh well!

Ok...now back to your questions....

Did he act angry with you at all today?

Not really. As I said he got quiet with me before I left but I wouldn't say he got angry. Not anything like what he has been.

Did you do anything different today that might have brought about these changes in your H?

The only thing I can think of is that I made that snap at him last night where I got a bit angry at him. I mentioned this before but often in the past he would tend to soften up when I get angry with him. Not sure if that is what this is it or not. What I have to keep in mind though is that I have to only get angry when I have a good reason to and not as a reaction to him when he's trying to pick a fight...otherwise it won't have the same affect. It's such a silly game...but I'm learning how to play it.

I'm sure the DB'ing has something to do with it...but I can't help but get this feeling that he is teetering on the edge of his 'identity crisis' and he's having moments where the old him comes back. I just have to ensure that things are as comfortable as possible when he's in this mode so it reminds him that he likes being that guy!

How has the rest of your day been? Good I hope.

I went out w/ S this afternoon and then went to my best friends for the rest of the day and dinner. Then I came back around 7 and H left right away.

I felt like it was a good day. A couple positives, but best of all I GAL. I've been stuck in the house for 3 days with a sick D so it was good to get out to the land of the living again!
