Ok, so an observation on my part today. H drove me to work today. He works from home and his car is in the shop so normally i just drive. I still drove, but I thought it would give us a bit of a chance to talk since we haven't done much of that lately (last couple days we've all been so sick). Before dropping the girls off at daycare, we all talked as a family (excpet the baby, she tried, but all i ever understand is ma ma.. hehe) then we dropped them off, talked breifly about him picking them up before getting me or vise versa, but after that nothing. we sat in near silence for about 35 minutes. How does that happen? I kept trying to think of things to talk about. I told him some things happening at work. his response "oh" I tried to ask him about the plans for this evening. "not sure"

I've been thinking all day and I've noticed that the only times he ever really talks to me anymore is either via email, if we are talking about the kids or cleaning the house or our R and his EA/OM issues. (not trying to minimize it, just saying)

Not sure how we got to this point. I feel like i can't even remember the last time we just had a conversation about something. His work or mine. Sports or a movie or music or a tv program. We used to. Now when i start talking it's like he's just turned himself off. Because we do talk about the kids and house and R i didn't notice it, but that silence from him in the car this morning made me think. Why doesn't he want to talk to me anymore? probably sounds like i'm whining, but i just don't get it.
