Separated, new baby, but still hopeful

[newmama]

OK so I baked cookies and made a fresh pot of coffee about 45 minutes before WH arrived...so the house would smell great!(I knew he wouldn't eat the cookies..but I ate 2! yumm- oatmeal chocolate chip raisin butterscotch chip)

So when he arrived he mentioned this baby catalog and recommended I look through it. I did and commented on various things. Then I saw an earache/ear inspector thingy. I said "look what they have!" and showed him and he said "Oh yes, I thought of you when I saw that!" (because I am so worried that S will have an earache but won't complain and then I won't know until it is very infected and he will be in excruciating pain!)

Well after about 30 minutes I picked up my butt and started working out. Then I went to the store to pick up photos and the usual...sigh....am getting so bored of going to the store every freakin Sunday!!!

Oh and WH was really sick with a cold. I offered to go another time so he could leave and rest but he said no but thank you. I commented on his sickness (TLC) several times and offered advice for taking care of the cold, etc.

So anyway when I returned I saw a draft of February's calendar. I saw that on Superbowl Sunday he wrote 9-2 and then Valentine's day was blank. So he would be gone Feb 11, 12, 13 AND 14? That doesn't seem like him....he won't be able to stay away that long from S.

Well I expected him to mention the calendar to me but next time I walked past the entry table, it was gone. Guess he is going to confer with OW about things! Maybe he will ask to take S overnight on Feb 13 and return the 14th!?

Oh and I was talking to my friend and explaining how I am busy 2 of the 3 nights he would be here during the dinner hour. She said she thinks it's good to keep 1 night of dinner and then save up conversation topics for that night. She said even with her husband, things are so hectic with the kids that she saves up topics. She said it also can be boring many nights so they have one night for sure (not a date night--don't know why) that she is sure to have meaningful and interesting conversation.

So I think that is good....also part of seduction too.

I don't have anything that great to report today regarding actions on WH's end. I did wear a colorful blouse,tight jeans and was laying on my side facing S but had my back to WH for the last 5 minutes he was here...a good view of my curves I would say! ;-)
