Got the bread done and in the freezer. H loves when I make bread but I stopped doing it when we had the break down this summer H's sleep schedule got messed up again due to a business trip he had to go on today so he was too tired to eat anything yesterday ( I did finally manage to get him to eat some pizza though). Decided it was better to freeze it rather then let it go to waste since I don't eat very much when he isn't around. Just seems like too much of a hassle to cook for just me, ya know?
I'm still perplexed at how he got over the anger thing. It was weird! H didn't want to speak to, look at or be around me at all Sat. which made it rather awkward when my parents came over I took your and Shiny's advice and got into "as if" mode.
I started talking to him about just mundane things "as if" he weren't angry at all. He would grudgingly answer me back. About 1 am he starts mucking about in the kitchen...I went in to see what the racket was about and got my head bit off. I beat a hasty retreat let me tell ya! Forty five minutes later I look up and he is standing there smiling...then proudly hands me a homemade funnel cake!! The man made pate choux (cream puff pastry)! I couldn't believe it...it was good too ! I told him how good it was...better than county fair stuff by far (I don't really like funnel cake...lol...but this was real light and not greasy). THEN he starts talking to me .
We go to bed eventually...I crawl in and stick to my side since I'm not real sure if his mood has actually shifted. Didn't want to push The dogs jump up in between us...H grabs the dogs and puts them back on the floor then grabs me and cuddles up next to me. It was like his anger had never existed! We made up
I avoided talking about the sitch too until yesterday. I asked H if he was willing to talk about it yet. He then proceeded to tell me what his intent was regarding it and told me not to worry about it anymore. A short, positive interaction with no snapping or irritability expressed and a solution in place. All this even though he was extremely tired from lack of sleep...too bad he couldn't have been this reasonable Fri
H also told me last night that there is a good possibility that he will be going to Delaware in the next couple of weeks. He has told his boss that he would rather drive then fly out. He is tired of having to leave here between 4 and 5 in the morning in order to make his flight (we live 2 hours away from airport...2 hours if no traffic is encountered that is) H said if they let him drive then he will take me with him because he enjoys having me along on his trips Will know more next week some time.
This week will be lonely since he is basically gone for the rest of the week. I know everyone will say that I should look to this as ME time...trust me, I get plenty of ME time every day since I am usually alone for at least 10 hrs of it. I do plan on coloring my hair though so that will be a nice surprise for him when he comes home. I also intend to clean all of my carpets...not exactly fun stuff but it will keep me occupied
