Sine H's return, things have been fairly smooth. He got annoyed at me yesterday for asking him questions when he was reading. I felt a bit hurt this morning when he picked up his magazine within minutes of waking up. Apart from that, all has been pretty amicable.
Some positives: H sought me out (at home) and initiated a little chat today. Usually, he's ensconced in his study unless I go to him. He did keep it short though. He also went through the Xmas cards that I figured were my responsibility to respond to and took on a couple from my family members. I'd already given him 'his' to respond to.
We have a 20 year old Canadian staying with us. He's a friend of S17's and D15's from summer camp. We are all enjoying him. H is more of an extrovert than he realises. I think he's nicer to me in the presence of others.
