"homework" from job - Hi Job, thank you

[Pudmuddle]

So today...

H didn't come up to room and say goodbye this morning. That was ok though. He didn't call on my way home from work. That was ok.

Then when I got home, a little bit later than usual because I had to stop at the drugstore, he was in the kitchen. While I was taking off my coat he came over to me and stood almost right in front of me but leaned on the couch. He didn't say anything, so I said "Hey, how was your day?" He said "Oh you know", which usually means same ol' sh*T. So I said "that bad huh?' and chuckled. Then he started going on about how people complain a lot and the processes at work never change and he had to go to his boss with a complaint. I just looked at him and listened. Then when he got to a certain point I said "That must be really frustrating huh?". He said "Yeah it sure is and..." he started to go into way more detail (db works!!) but then suddenly realized he was TALKING to me about frustration, lol, and snapped back with "but it will never change". I just smiled and said "Well you CAN change the way your brain thinks about it, then it would be different" and laughed a little. He kind of smirked and said "well yeah"

Then we talked about the dog that had been a little sick, and then talked about my S being a teenager and in his mr moodypants mood. H said, I just don't know sometimes (about S) and I said "well yeah, I keep telling myself he IS a teenager! and just let him be".

Then H asked about my workday too. Then he told me about how he had to teach the kickboxing class tonight because one of the owners had stopped teaching it for the month.

SOoooooo, nothing earth-shattering today, just seemed like he WANTED to talk with me and WANTED to see if I would say hi to him first.

Sigh. kids. lol.

Lovely things that happened today:

A friend from work I hadn't talked to in a while, came over and talked with me about marital issues. She was loving and supportive of what I was doing. It made me feel great.

I stopped at the drugstore to get a few things and got some pumpkin pie spice Kisses and chocolate Kisses. I brought them home to put in a bowl just cuz.

Brought my son some lemon wafer bars in a bag. He hugged me and said in his silly way "You have made a child so happy", LOL and pretended to weep. That made me feel good and laugh. He is so funny.
