Thanks guys. Even as I wrote about what happened, I was thinking to myself that I had every right to be disappointed, I just didn't handle it properly.
Now, tonight, H has unexpectedly had a Korean vendor show up at his workplace earlier today wanting to take him out for dinner. So H is out w/his client, while I took S to Karate and then we met his parents for dinner (the kids and I, that is). Finally got the kids to bed at 9 and I have a couple hours of work yet to do. I am guessing H will not be up for dialoguing again tonight.
We have 2 assignments, 1)Writing a blueprint for our own personal life goals (actually we pick one goal to focus on, mine was realizing that I am not responsible for other people's happiness) and 2)Writing a blueprint for our marriage. First, we make our own blueprint based on a goal we have. Mine was to establish a foundation of love and commitment (you could pick from a list of like 10 general goals). To that end, I wrote H a letter pledging my love and commitment to him and our marriage. I wrote it and read it to him 2 weeks ago.
H has not even started either assignment. Once you do both, you share your blueprints for your marriage, and re-write ONE blueprint that is a common goal for you both in the marriage. Can't do that till H does his 2 other assignments. As I said, mine have been done for 2 weeks. Our final class is in 3 days. We go to Des Moines Sat. afternoon to stay w/my sister so we can run the Marathon on Sunday. Then drive directly from the race site to the Retro site (3 hours apart).
Any bets on whether H will get his work done?????????
