H has been sick with a cold/flu this week. I firmly believe that there needs to be a law that wives of sick hubbies get 2 paid days off work for every 1 that the hubby is sick - and that at least 1 of those days is a free full treatment spa day.
But rest assured, he wasn't so sick he couldn't head up for his weekly gambling trip. (I know I was sure worried he might miss that - eye roll here-)
While he was sick wasn't he ever so snuggly in the bed? And asked "Why don't you snuggle me???" (I didn't say "Because it takes all my energy to wait on you hand and foot while NOT SMACKING YOU SILLY" and I feel I should get points for my restraint.)
I have the feeling of late that H is actually a bit embarrassed that he said some of the jackassey things that have come out of his mouth. But of course, there's no apology coming out of that mouth - heaven forbid. But he's been saying things alluding to "our" future, such as the cruise "for the family, but probably not for a year or two" and changes he'd make to the house if he could "because our family is evolving".
I haven't responded to anything he's said in this vein - simply opened the MLC storage closet a crack and tossed the comments in on top of everything else.
I'm posting in purple because, well, I like purple. Lol. And I'm actually feeling fairly happy these days. Oh, I still want to do minor violence to H and really don't see a future for us. And D18 is still a gigantic worry and concern (home the first time in days. Still no job.)
But I'm feeling better about "moi" Probably a lot of this due to my job Wow is it GREAT to have a job I like!! Honestly, I think this is the first job in my whole life that I've really truly liked.
I also found a website devoted to personality disorders, and while I'm certainly not a doctor (nor do I play one on TV >showing my age there lol< ) I feel strongly that H displays at least some traits of the narcissistic personality. Don't know if this is right or wrong, but it seems likely. And it helps me to take things less personally.
So! Off to my weekend job which I truly don't like, lol. (Can't have everything )

You teach people how to treat you by what you allow. What you stop. And what you reinforce. ~~~~~~~ A lack of boundaries invites a lack of respect.
