HaWho, mine has had our cats a month now with our house on the market. He hasn't even bothered asking me how the house sale is going or when I'm taking the cats back. I find it so odd. Sometimes I think maybe he is enjoying having them as some reminder of the "normal" life he no longer has.
I'm glad your H is being more humorous and less angry and that you have some of your wistfulness back.
