Hello all, Thanks for your support! It's been one week since I showed H the book. It sat on the desk in the dining room all week, unopened. Now it sits on the piano, still unopened!!
I know I shouldn't be too tough on him, but he is just a lost cause! I mean, (I know I'm venting here), but for instance...last time I worked (3 to 11's), I came home late to discover that the toilet wasn't working. So I asked him about it, and he says "I plungered it". I'm like "And that's it??? You knew it wasn't fixed, but just left it anyway?" Bear in mind that it's now midnight...so here I am, in the middle of the night, disassembling the fricking crapper!! He could've easily done this himself, since the "incident" happened after the kids had gone to bed..but no...he does his bit by plunging it, and thus is off the hook and I end up fixing it in the middle of the night! Of course, then there he is, hovering around, getting in the way, trying to be MR. HELPFUL...I felt like I wanted to deck him! It took me one hour to fix it. He could've easily done it and had it fixed before I came home. (okay, vent over!)
It's very hard to try to be patient and understanding when these type of stunts occur! I mean, things like this really don't make me want to work on the relationship. Then he doesn't even take the time to look at the book, but yet he finds time to fall asleep in front of the tv, and watch the basketball games. These things say to me "I'm don't really care about you." I guess I was hoping that working on my own attitude would cause some changes. Maybe I've not been at it long enough? It's just so FRUSTRATING! Then he comes at me with the LD issues, and I don't even want to go there for discussion. I don't even want to discuss anything! Guess I need some lessons from Corri on how to hold my tongue better.
I did make the dr. appt for the BC thing, it comes this week. Maybe the dr. will have some ideas? Any good sugguestions for questions I should ask?
