Hi sandi2,

Thanks for the comments.

So, she did say thank you on the phone before she arrived. But, nothing in person.

Yes, you are absolutely correct, when she is very tired or stressed, she will go into a really bad mood. My normal response was to absorb this as I knew this wasn't really her. Much as I did here.

Today, so far has been calm. She is constantly talking about the move and how this year here is not what she want.
She told me that she just wants to go home to her parents and be a little girl again.

She also brought up that her parents are coming and that they will be staying for alot longer than we had discussed. I asked her to stop the conversation and if we could discuss it in couples counselling as I didn't want an argument and I do want my opinion to be heard.
She agreed, but did say that her parents would be coming as they want to make sure that their daughter is ok.

It's really tough looking happy all day!!!
