Heh, applied a bit of reciprocation to W's verbal attacks last night. W has a habit of calling just before I get home to ask me to do the groceries, even though she had plenty of time to go herself earlier in the day. Last night she calls me and does the usual "Can you go, or I can go when you get home" so I called her bluff and said she can go *8)

Got home to hear "I did work today!", "Why didn't you want to shop?" and various other whinging. Got to around dinner time and W still hadn't left to shop so I told her to hurry up and go, got another little rant from her which I reflected again. As W was leaving she did the "I just shouldn't come back!"

And you know what? I was thinking to myself after that how amusing she is saying that since she can't afford to leave, trying to push my buttons with hollow threats isn't going to work. I just made dinner and watched the kids, by the time W got back it was ready and she thanked me for cooking etc. Bet W went to her little group of IM boyfriends afterwards and wailed about how mean her H is!

W still isn't sleeping properly, still on an carb over-eating phase... Guess she is stressed by something, wish I could say I really cared. Going to have to get W to sleep on the couch if she continues to come to bed late and disturb my sleep by waking up early too.

Wonder if W is waking up to the fact that I'm going to stop picking up the slack, she better get herself back in gear with the housework now that she doesn't have a job anymore. W was also telling me how she wants to continue with her personal trainer thing at the gym, sure, where are you getting the 450 Euro from to pay for it this time?
