I had a great time last Friday. One of my friends ahd organized a meal for six of us ladies and our assorted kids in her house. Such fun!

Then, on Saturday, I tackled a couple of those man jobs my H is neglecting. He usually gets a guy in to cut the grass but I found out how to use to mower and just got on with it-and with a little help from the kids. I also topped up the oil in my car. Never got up close with t dipstick before so that`s a new skill for me.

I find I`m tranquil and detached too. The only thing that bothers me is that my peace is like a red rag to a bull with H and I know he`s itching to start a row. All he has to do is move out but he wants that to be my decision and now feels trapped because he hasn`t the guts to make that choice himself. So he`s going to needle me into getting him to leave I think.

We`ll see. I really do believe that despite everything we could have a good working relationship. But H may never get to that point of going to counselling.This morning he practically elbowed me out his way twice.

Luckily i`ve a busy week ahead and shouldn`t be around him too much.
