Hi Minnie,

No I knew he wouldn't be home. I slept well though, six hours.

Had S4 call H this morning when he got up. S4 was in such a good mood this morning!! I heard S4 ask his dad to pick him up from daycare today, talked about S4's cousin who got caught up in the bad weather the other night, heard his name mentioned on the local news. S4 asked if H wanted to talk to me, which he did, so spoke with H this morning first about nephew who had been hurt, just minor stuff. Then H said "S4 wants me to pick him up tonight" I said oh he did..I heard S4 ask, but was playing stupid. I said you can if you want too.

H has his truck back, it was the fuel pump that needed to be fixed. When I spoke with him last night he made it sound like they didn't know what was wrong and that it wasn't even being looked at...so H was just spewing yesterday, a temper tantrum of some sort.

This happened in February, H just blew up because I wouldn't make S4's dinner RIGHT NOW and left the house for a few days. S20 was there at the time and didn't understand what the blow up was about either.

What happened to me was that I got caught up in H's storm and didn't just sit on the curb like I'm supposed to...geez I just don't get it some days do I? I was having a pity party and making H's actions about me once again. Need something, a reminder, a sign to get me off the roller coaster.

I also mentioned to H that I had to work late on Monday and that I therefore couldn't take S4 to t-ball and it's our turn to bring the snack. H said well I'm only working till 3:30 now so I can take him.

Need to remember to keep my eyes off the circumstances.

Cathy
