The next phase is in sight.

Turns out H had made plane reservations to go to yet another country, and then return here the last week of March. I was perturbed that he hadn't asked if that would work for me. He said that since I had said it wasn't important to me that he be home for Christmas, he assumed I didn't want him back any time soon. Well, I guess that is true in a way, but now elder-dog is becoming incontinent and it is a major headache, one which also makes it harder to find pet care and I told him I need a week of major relaxation.

He sent me his new credit card info, (He solved the problem without my help). He said he could understand why I was getting tired and said I could used his card to charge a gift certificate for a week at a spa, to go now if I can find dog care, or when he returns. I jumped all over that.

Resolved the phone issue. He said that he thought I had the number where he was and that he thought I didn't want to talk with him anyway. (We still haven't spoken on the phone though, just email)

He used to phone issue to segue in to the possible "misunderstanding' we had 6 months ago which resulted in my deciding not to join him in Europe and his emailing me not to come. Yeah, right, it was all just a misunderstanding and six months later when he's about to return, he is trying to "resolve" it.

I managed to step away from the keyboard and resist the temptation to respond to nonsense and just focused on practical matters and the weather. Now he sounds a bit peeved that I am not "communicating" with him.

So, I thought I had another month, then today an email from him saying his plans to go on to the next country are now in doubt. Aaagh! I am madly packing today.
