I went home at lunch expecting H to be in bed getting some sleep.
I walk in and hear the dehydrator going and I come in to the kitchen he is sitting at the table. Right now this is the only spot he seems to occupy in the house. It used to be his recliner.
Being caught off guard he was there... I just in a happy voice said 'ohhhhh bananas....' H has never done these before. I wasn't even talking to him but looking at the dehydrator like a deer in headlights. H then said R's (male friend) daughter likes them.
I had moved my work out clothes first thing this morning so that if H was sleeping I didn't have to disturb him to get them. I go and change in another part of the house as H stated he was about ready to take a shower.
I then go into another room, closed the door and proceeded to work out while he continued to sit at the table on his phone.
10min later he comes into the room I'm in to talk to me. I have to take out my ear buds and stop the equipment to hear him as he is just so soft spoken these days with. He stated X was finished in the garage (this was a project that needed finished and stalled... for years). I said okay thanks. He turns and leaves the room to go shower.
Now, I could have gone into the garage and noticed - it would have been obvious it was done. He could have even waited to see if I noticed and then complained that I hadn't.
I'm sure he just thinks he is taking care of business.
So I finish my workout. Go rinse off. Get back into work clothes. Chat with friends on phone. I'm sitting quietly in the room with the door closed to keep things quiet when he gets up an hour later and peeks to see if I am home but says nothing. Gets ice cream from the freezer and retreats to the room.
So here we are yet again at 3pm and he isn't sleeping... he will not be able to get himself up... its a beautiful day and I'm surprised that if he isn't sleeping he didn't take the motorcycle out.
I will go home and try to walk the dogs together - disaster I'm sure, but if I just take one the other will bark non-stop and I don't want that to wake up H. It really is a pretty day and I caught myself in a smile earlier at work.
