Thanks guys for all the words of support.....I already HAD to talk to H but kept it minimal. Came home at 12:30 a.m. from Iowa last night. Wanted to look at the basement bathroom that H had been working on. Well, the shower faucet was dripping, like one drop per second, consistently. So the baseboard 2x4 was soaked, an 18" section of drywall was soaked, etc etc etc.
I but a bucket under the drip and propped it up b/c it had to rest on the 2x4 frame and the bucket was a 5 gal bucket, so it overhung quite a bit. Then I called H to tell him what was up. He sounded bummed about it, said put a bucket under it and prop it up--told him that was done. He said he'd have to think about what else to do since he won't be back down here for 2 weeks (we are up there for Easter next weekend).
I got a TM from him that said, "We will probably have to call a plumber to fix my mistake. Another thing I suck at". So obviously he has no PMA at this time.....I dumped the bucket this morning and plan to just watch it until he figures out a solution...H sent me a TM this morning that he may have his dad come down and try to fix it...
On an unrelated note, I went in our bedroom this morning to put away some laundry. 11 days ago when I found out he was still w/OW, I took our wedding photo off his dresser b/c it seemed like such a joke, and it was depressing to me to look at us smiling and so happy, and to see us how we are now......anyway I stuck it in his dresser on the side with shelves. Just stuck it in between some pj pants of his. This morning it was out on the dresser again, laying face up, but not propped up. The pj pants were where they had always been, so he must have put them back after he picked up the picture?? Weird
Oh well I have lots to do to get this place clean and organized. I am a "piler"--I will clear off the counter or some other area and put the "pile" of papers and stuff somewhere else. Now I need to confront the piles.....So naturally I am on the computer instead
Also maybe this is dumb but I am thinking about buying a cute, simple ring to wear where I used to wear my wedding ring. My finger feels a little lonely and maybe having something sparkly and fun will make it feel better?? I know we aren't divorced and maybe we never will be but while we are in this state I don't feel like wearing my ring, it seems phony to me somehow...
