Yes, my husband was here on Monday and came home after work Tuesday and Wednesday. I never asked and he never said if he was staying, how long he was staying, and I just went with the flow.
Mind you, he had two whole weeks, plus two days of the house all to himself. Instead of staying in the 8x10 room at his Mom's he had the whole place to himself. He could eat what he wanted, drink what he wanted, and use the DVR function on the satellite.
The days he was here I did all his laundry, cooked dinner every night (except last night when we met at one of favorite dives for a wet burrito) and even cooked breakfast for him in the mornings. We had pleasant conversation, completely non-R, and I had no expectations as I anticipated he would leave.
We talked about his need to have a break before the university began classes and I encouraged him to take a half day on Friday and go away for the weekend. Weather depending, he's been wanting to take the motorcycle out and make a weekend of it.
This morning on his way out he did take all of his shower stuff and his clothes. He gave me a nice kiss and hug goodbye and said he would update me on his weekend plans. I said ok, be safe.
I met my MIL for breakfast this morning and I brought her a bag with his belt, his toothpaste, and a book he left behind. She was down to hear he was going to be going back there tonight. She'd gotten her hopes up because he'd stayed so many days. I told her not to worry, that I was just going with the flow.
It will be interesting how comfortable the "cave" will be for him after having a whole house and a queen size bed for over two weeks.
