He actually has not responded yet (never mind that he is supposed to pick the kids up tomorrow AM...
He did send me an email informing me that he stopped by the house to pick up the package with his new Iphone that he was expecting.
I responded saying "thanks for letting me know. I am glad you got a new phone - you had your old one so long and got really good use out of it. You deserved a nice new phone!"
why? a) to validate, validate, validate (for a long time he postponed getting a new phone, even though he really wanted it...) b) to make sure he knew I was not mad - my email re. the weekend was so neutral, that he probably thought that I was angry (our usual dynamic). He has said he is always afraid of me getting angry. My response re. the phone showed him that I was not and that was important so he could see my 180.
I will wait to see what he says re. the weekend...
