Ok, so much for going black, but, black I'm not! Maybe I'm just midnight blue.
I have more news to tell. I guess the H figured it was safe to come home today since he called me on my job phone and found out I am still working.
I had strategically placed his Christmas card above the back door before I left for work. So, when he opened the door, the card fell down on the floor. He he he he :). It worked! He picked it up and put it face down on the counter next to the door. "Oops, I got caught," I'll bet he thought??? Yep, he did.
I called him and very nicely suggested that he was home today. He, very guiltily, said, "Yes. I brought some dog food, but I didn't take anything, nothing, nothing." (Dog food that he didn't need to bring yet. There is still a half of a bag left).
I said very calmly and politely, "Well, you really don't need to be coming home anymore when I'm not here. Call and ask first, OK?" He said he would. Now, we'll see.
I feel empowered!
At least I had a reason to call him this time. And, believe it or not, he was ingratiating. That's a good sign, I think.
