I think I'm going to end the last temptation to snoop, by splitting up our phone accounts. No good comes of it and it is harmful to my PMA.
W was in quite a mood tonight. Seemed very agitated and edgy, like she had something on her mind. Was upset about it being so late when she had to leave, but it was her idea to come over late and see a move that started at 10 PM, so....
I did very good. She got frustrated because I couldn't hear something she said during the movie, when she knows I can't hear quiet talking well in a noisy environment due to high frequency hearing loss, and I had told her tonight my ears are plugged and bothering me. On the plus side, she insisted on taking me to the ENT when I make another appt. I said I could make it on a Sat (since she's usually over here on weekends anyway), but she said just make it for the afternoon and she'd come over. That was nice of her to do that - my ENT doc is a 30 min drive and it's almost as far to get over here.
The other thing was driving to the movie, I was making small talk about how the yoga was good for my back, and finding time to exercise and do it was hard. Made a joke about finding time for that with all the TV and internet... she kind of snapped that I need to drop both and something I didn't quite catch about putting personal business on Facebook. I wasn't sure if she meant me specifically, or in general, so I shut up and said nothing for the rest of the drive. Now, she doesn't post much on FB (but she did remove her marital status a long time ago...). But... when it comes to the TV, she's the one that kept wanting me to keep recording shows we liked to watch.
Now I'm torn. I don't know if I should keep cable as it is and keep recording those shows to keep that connection and activity between us, or tell her I took her advice and dropped everything but basic cable - because I've been considering it many times because of the increased cost of this separation and the added thousands in credit card costs it already wracked up.
