Look what the cat dragged in! (TL) - Act 2

I basically avoided him all day today when he came home. We had minimal communication via msg to let him know I needed to go to the store today to at least get a few critical things, would do a real shopping trip tomorrow and that I would need to pay for son's counseling appointment tomorrow.

So he did at least give me the keys and the debit card today with requiring to preapprove the list, and tells me to take out the cash I need for son's appointment. I mention we might also need some cash to dry laundry over the weekend. He tells me to ONLY take out the money for the appointment. "Okay. Thanks."

But presumably he is going to have to give me the card again tomorrow to do the rest of the shopping... can't I just use the debit card at the therapy office too, like a normal person?

I snapped at him tonight because he waltzes downstairs all ready to leave when dinner was going to be done in another 10 minutes. He DID previously tell me he was eating here tonight... so that really annoys me. He wants to micromanage the grocery list, but then cause me to waste food making more than we needed tonight. So dumb. He also told me he didn't take the time to read my other messages yet. Oh joy.

I told him it's fine. The most important bit is that our son isn't an idiot. He has watched enough tv to get a sense that H's coming and going and not sleeping here is essentially a "separation" even if we aren't calling it that. That H shouldn't fool himself about whether son realizes the possible implications of whats going on right now. He does. We can pretend, but it's not fooling anyone.
