Thanks. I need that kick in the butt now and then. I'm also glad to know I'm not just talking to myself on here.
I got home yesterday afternoon and he was just drifting off for a nap. So of course, he was pissy when we came in and made noise. He didn't even offer to help unload the car. He went into a rant about how he had to clean so much hair out of the drain (mine and D15's) and had to replace part of the pipe because it was corroded. I just said "sorry" and left the room.
Then I went into the bedroom to start unpacking and he settled back into the recliner to resume his nap. Half an hour later or so, I went into the kitchen to get a glass of water and accidentally knocked over a tape gun that was sitting on the counter. I got the evil eye and he got up and announced that he was giving up on his nap. I got D15 and we went to a store she wanted to go to and out for dinner.
Funny thing, I felt like I was starting to detach back in July. I began to envision a life without him and even look forward to it. But then, it was like one morning, I woke up and I'm right back here again. I'm trying to get back to the detached mindset, but haven't made it yet. It seems to cycle for me.
I'm reading other threads and trying to learn from observation, but don't feel like I have any advice to give at this point.
I wish I could be on here more, but it's difficult at work (where I am now) and at home, sitting around on the computer is pretty much what we've always done, so I'm trying to 180 and GAL. It's hard though. Seems like anything I want to do costs money and with the prospect of single parenthood lurking, I'm reluctant to spend anything.
Edit to add: I took some great photos at the lake though!
