How about something like "too bad you havent got me there to help you decorate"? Something that says that you are fabulous and he is really missing out by not being with you. ???
or
"Too bad I'm not with you so that we could laugh about how your mom drives you crazy. Oh well... it sucks to be you! Fortuantely for me I'm going to be out and about this weekend doing xyz" said in a light cheery tone. (maybe the "sucks to be you" bit is a bit much?!?)
That's the best I can come up with (I'm very in-experienced, I always tried to be the 'nice' girl).
Do it if it will make you feel strong. If not then I'm back to not responding at all. Sorry I'm not up to play on your situation, but have you ever not responded, and if so what were your results?
You are fab, and your H is definitely crazy to be missing out on you.
