Good morning. Journaling this morning, H was out last night, got home late. The girls and I had a fine evening, picked out a paint color for the bathroom. H says it's too dark. In the past I would have quickly and totally caved in to the color he wants, even though I dislike it. But today I'm wondering why would I do that when he's about to move out anyway? I've always been jealous of those women whose Hs let them do whatever they wanted with the house. Mine is picky and there are a lot of things I would do differently. After he leaves, I have some re-decorating plans, although my budget will be small.

On the other hand, I need to keep him somewhat happy and invested in the house, since he's going to continue to pay for everything. I guess I won't paint the bedroom pink just yet.

H is supposed to take D11 home from her VB game and get her dinner tonight because I have Back to School Night for D16. Last time he was supposed to pick her up, he messed up royally. I asked him this morning if there was anything I could do to help him, and he said no, that he had just messed up. But I found out yesterday that he had thrown me under the bus to D11 about last time, he said that I hadn't told him where to go. I guess emails and texts don't count.
