If my H ever called me that to my face, I would probably punch him too. LOL. S saw that (LOL) and just freaked out. He said I"m too old to be speaking his language. He also hates that i"m talking to people online. I guess I'm not cool enough.
Windy here too. And they said we will be getting a cold front on Saturday coming from all of your way. I just can't wait. It is under 80 today which is gorgeous. Overcast too which I just love. I love the winter because everything dies and then in a few months it regenerates into beautiful green stuff.
So H called house about his karate clothes. Could have called my cell but didn't. Either was hoping I was out or that S would answer. I don't know. I'm in and out so much with my clients that I don't think he has a clue what my schedule is. H too gets wierd with me after ML. That is usually when the alien shows up. At least lately.
BG-keep that wood stove burning for me.

My friends, it was good advice that you all gave to me.
I picked up a small pizza and took it over to H's worksite. When I got close I parked, but had to call him because I could see the equipment but not see the guys. They were eating lunch, one of the guys had gone out and picked up pizza! I started to laugh and told him, "Oh, I just picked up a pizza for you." By this time we could see each other, so I hung up the phone and went over to where he was. I had also picked up a bottle of pop for him, and he was happy to have that. The guys all came over to talk to me and H took the pizza to put in his truck. He put the pizza in the cab, and retrieved a huge bunch of catnip that he had bunched together like a bouquet of flowers. One of the guys said "oh yeah, he got here first thing this morning and got this for you. Do you have a cat?" I looked at H and said "there are roots on it, we can plant it." He said, "yes, it was the last of it so I wanted to get you some more." Then he was laughing "it's a pretty good deal, I get pizza and you get catnip." We all talked about the job they were doing for a few minutes and I had to go back to work. He gave me a kiss goodbye and I said "I had a really good time last night, and I'm sorry that you got angry this morning." He kind of cut me off and apoligised over me, said He was sorry he got so mad. Again he said that he wanted me to have this catnip to make up for it. He said that we would put some up to dry where the cat could not get at if. Then he told me he had a hair cut appt. right after work but would be home right after that.
I think that the most positive thing this morning was that I did not react to his ranting and when he got out in the "clear air of normal" he probably felt pretty bad.
Kel, I started to look up about sage smude and it's pretty interesting. I have no problem with ordering some and will keep up my reading. I have two close friends that are Native Michigan Indians and they have always done a lot of things with sages and sweet grasses etc. I went to my first pow-wow this summer and really enjoyed it.
BG, I understand your reaction and hitting him when he called you that. It's not in me any more, but I had that kind of emotional passion in me once apon a time. I don't blame you, it's an ugly word. Somehow, when H used it this morning it was so childish and out of place I almost laughed. I was also around the corner and in the next room, so I just had this mental image of him standing in his underwear, halfway thru shaving and having his temper tantrum. I'm going to try and keep up with this type of mental immagery.
Most of us are about as happy as we make up our minds to be.
Hope, I don't know why I feel like I want you to cleanse the house but I do so I am glad you are willing to try it. Something about his mood swings being so dramatic tells me that there could be a little more than meets the eye. So it can't hurt to cleanse. Too bad we can't cleanse them (they would never let us). But getting the house clean will help you both.
So tell me how did you come about the house? You can post on my sitch if you feel like you don't want to put the long story here.

glad you went and did it girlie, I am proud of you!! actually that is a love dare lol!!!
actually, you can do a cleansing on a person kinda, my family has some diff beliefs, natural healing and kinda old school native things. I dont talk about them with many people as they think its strange lol!!
watch out with that catnip, it can take over really quick lol!

BG-Iknow you can do a cleansing on a person. I believe in that stuff, but I know what you mean about not talking about it. So many people just don't believe and then they think you are crazy. Well people probably already think we're crazy for all of this right? Anyway, I did the cleansing on self and S but I know DH would never stand there and let me do it on him. Hopes probably wouldn't either and depending on his mood he may just spew more stuff.
So is there a way to do it remotly? I think I'll have to do some research as I haven't looked at that aspect at all.

Wow, i love that you took him pizza. I too got an apology last week for the jerk coming out. They are trying in their way I guess. I love that he got more catnip too.
Your friends might actually have some sage. It is definately more on the holistic side of things. I would love to go to a pow wow. The indians have always fascinated me. We have the Seminoles here. Now they run casinos.

The drama of his mood swings bother me a bit too. I'm pretty sure there is intense guilt along with other possible factors at play. I really pray that he is not smoking some sort of his own "sage" if you catch my meaning. It certainly is not cleansing, lol!
I will tell you the story with my house, but it will probably have to wait until tomorrow. I have a couple of things that I have to get done this afternoon, and so not sure if I will have time today. But I have been thinking about it, so I'm sure that there is some meaning to it.
Kel, tel your S that it is a parents job to embarrass their kids. I know that from about age 12 to 21 I was so uncool to my boys that I could do nothing right. Guess what? We're friends again now.
BG I have been linking about the Love Dare a lot this week. I was thinking about it again when I did the lunch thing.
I know about the catnip, but appreciate the tip. I used to have some where we lived previously and it did get out of control. Think I will plant this in more of a contained space.
I have no problem with the native perspective on life. I am interested in considering everything.
Thanks for walking with me friends. It helps so much.

Wow! That's a lot of casinos! We have three in Detroit, one in Mt. Pleasant and more others as you get closer to the Mackinaw Bridge and up into the UP (Upper Peninsula). There are also a couple near the southern borders of the state by Ohio and Indiana. Ours are also all run by the various Indian Tribes.
I also wanted to tell you that my H also has complained that I only dress up for work, or only put makeup on for work etc... which is so not true. I really think he only notices it on work days.
BG, I'll help you carry that T where ever we need to go!
