Sorry to leave you hanging (and Nitaf, I'll try to come by soon! I promise!) -- simply put, work has been hell. Busy, yes, but also an emotional turmoil with a guy that I have to work closely with. He's gone out of his way (ok, probably not on purpose) to alienate just about everyone -- last week we had a candid conversation and now he has completely FREAKED! He's been ranting to my boss about EVERYONE (including me!) and everything and we're all sort of reeling from it. It's definitely been demoralizing.
anyway, the weekend was great. h and I are doing really well! We went to dinner and a movie Friday night. Saw "Door in the Floor" which was a really, really good movie but had very strong themes of a marriage in distress, infidelity, etc. It was difficult to watch but so well done that I really enjoyed it.
Saturday I ran some errands and then went to lunch with my sister and my mom. My relationship with my mother is so strained and lunch was no better...she put me on the spot about some stuff and I was honest with her which just upset us both. UGH. anyway, when I got home I found that h had spent the entire day working in the yard and around the house! He got an amazing amount of stuff done!
We went for a hike then got food and watched a movie in.
Sunday we spent the AM at h's baseball game then relaxed at home for the rest of the day -- took a walk, watched tv, snuggled on the couch. We had a lot of "talking" time this weekend -- no R talks of course but lots and lots of sharing and conversing, etc. There was a time when I was convinced that my h didn't "communicate" -- sigh -- he's been doing it all along, I think!
Anyway, good stuff all around...now if only I could find another job????!!!
