Tomorrow is a New Day

OK. First off, use a tweezer to get that bone out of the fish. Now onto more important stuff....

Sounds like you guys just got into it at an unfortunate time. You weren't trying to pick a fight but he wasn't in a good mood so things went downhill fast. Maybe you can try to work out schedules during dinner or at sometime when he IS in a good mood? If it's possible, cut off the conversation if it starts to go south like that.

You may need to do a little more GAL here. If you can find a good time to discuss schedules, I would do that - and maybe try to set the schedule for the week regarding D ahead of time so it's not an issue. I know it's hard because you are already so busy and he doesn't like it, yet he takes advantage and dumps on you when you are around. Standing up to him firmly but gently on this might work... what do you think? Get a white board or something so everyone knows what's going on.

By the way, on the cuddling front, my H usually rejects me the day after we ML. Things can be fine BEFORE we ML - he lets me touch him and rub his back, whatever, but the next day he recoils. So I guess it's par for the course, even though it stinks.
