So my H called me at work before I left. He hasn't done that in a few days. Asked about my SIL and kids in Nevada, because of the recent school shooting. I told him they were no longer living in that area and hadn't been for awhile. Then H asked about some logistical things with S. It was cool and friendly. Then I started to say goodbye to cut it short and he asked if I was going to take dog out for a jog. I said 'sure it's still nice out enough.' I felt like I was speaking to a friend and not someone I would consider H.
Then I got home and the house smelled great because of the chicken I made in the crockpot. S was downstairs in grumpy teenage mode, H was in his room getting stuff ready for his kickboxing class. So I took chicken out and started to cut it. Tasted a piece. It was yum, so I started talking to myself about how good it was. "this is mighty good if I do say so myself!" "Yuummy!"
Then I told H about some clothes of his I had folded and they were on bed upstairs. He said ok, but he didn't go get them. Then he mentioned how one of the dogs had an accident in the cage and said 'But I didn't clean it'. Really...
After that he was talking about the dryer and how the clothes (mine) were not dry so he hit the button again to cycle and he said with pure amazement "and then it just shut off", almost like he had no idea how to fix it... I said "It was on a low setting so probably thought it was done".
Two very weird behaviors, because normally he would have been all over those two things. He is a fixit guy. He does not like messes and would have fiddled with the dryer til it worked.
I SWEAR their brain just shuts down during this crisis mode. GEEEZ.
Then I set up Halloween decorations all by myself because S was grumpy. SHEESH, nothing like TWO teenagers in the house and both grumpy or have lost their minds. I just kept plugging away reminding myself in my head 'I am good I am well I am happy'. BUT IN CRAZYTOWN.
I found myself muttering out loud a couple of times "I swear this house has gone to nutville"
