Has Christine graduated to piecing?

Nonetheless, I've found what's best is to lie super low when H is cranky, like tornado passing through. The more I leave him alone and don't react, respect his space, the sooner he comes back and is his nicer old self again.

Very true. Having to wrestle with a problem over on my thread, and just leaving it for a day, thinking about it and basically giving H the benefit of the doubt - he had a bad day and got cranky - may do the trick, I suspect.

It's when first the WAS gets the bit between the teeth and goes mad with wild allegations and mad behaviour, and then we react with a knee-jerk reaction, that things spiral out of control into nastyland.

Best to rise above it all. Like Mount Kilimanjaro, with its peak floating above the clouds. You're a prize winner in that department, Christine, well done you!
