Is there light at the end of the tunnel?

[wishing, hoping]

Well I didn't hear from H all day. I almost expected him not to come home tonight, but he did. Oh yes, he was in a marvelous mood tonight. Not. Barely even spoke to the kids. That's odd even for him!!

First of all he goes off the deep end about the soccer schedule of games and practices for S. He just can't believe how much there is. Uh, hello. It was like that last summer and the summer before, H. You were just never around so you had no clue. Then he goes back into the issue of the bank and the missing payment that was figured out and resolved by moi. He gets on his soapbox about how he needs to make sure that issue is removed from our credit report. It can really screw with our credit, blah, blah, blah... I told H it was never on our credit report. They said if we hadn't made arrangements with them they would take it to collections. Well that's not what she told me, he says. It's right on the paperwork, H. In black and white. You should like that.

Then he talks about how there is a conflict with the kids because both kids have something going on at the same time tomorrow. Hello. Welcome to my world. He almost asked me for my help and at the last minute decided not to. So you don't want to admit you need help or you don't want me to think you need help? Or you just don't want help from me? Ha! Not as easy as it looks, is it H?

He spent the rest of the night in his room. I guess he fell asleep. Kids and I ate dinner, played Twister, sang songs, played with the dog and took baths. He just kept his miserable self in his room. Poor H. I hope he does not expect that from me on days that are not mine because I will be dammed if I am going to cloister myself in my room like a hermit just because he's an @$$. The judge and GAL said themselves that is not what the purpose of this arrangement is.

D went in his room and kissed him goodnight and he had fallen asleep in his work clothes. He is a pitiful, pitiful man. He must have had a rough night. Svcks to be him.
