Not all the time, gForce, I promise you....see below example...

Journaling:

Woke up to H making pancakes and eggs for the girls. He made me a plate as well when I sat down (he kept sending the girls up "Get your Mommy so she can eat too..."). A nice morning. Then, he noticed the pool didn't get covered last night (awful storms, leaves, debris) and got really upset. Compained about the babysitter (Um, H, you were home AFTER the sitter, you could have covered it as well), then found a few other things to complain out. Turned downright rude. As usual, never ever notices things I do right, always finds the one thing I don't do 'right' in his eyes...

I got ready, kissed the girls and went and ran errands, drove around, talked on the phone (and texted...HI SALLYM!). Came back, gave H space (he should give ME space, its almost my house, but that's a complaint for another day!) and then went to work.

I told him that he will not be rude to me like that. He can vent his complaints about the sitter to me, but NOT when the girls are around. I told him that we are at a respectful point, and I don't know what 'turned' him this morning (maybe 'happy family breakfast'? Still not sure...), but I didn't like it. I got a lame "I'm sorry", he sooo didn't mean it, but whatever. I had my say.

It'll blow over. But I told SallyM, no WAY am I giving up one of the few perks of this D, not having to deal with H's bad moods....I'll call him on it.
