1. I got a bunch of praise from my boss yesterday for the dual role I had been playing. I e-mailed about it to h and he sent me the cutest invitation to a celebration dinner.
2. When I got home from school h had done a ton of cleaning up in the kitchen. Lately I've been the one doing the dishes, laundry, litter boxes most often. it hasn't been like "pre-bomb" when I would have been angry about that...but two nights ago h said "please, leave the dishes in the sink in the morning and I'll do them at night" -- letting me know that he DOES want to help out...I've just been pre-empting him by getting to stuff first. REMINDER to SELF -- LET h have the opportunity to do things!
3. h told me that he didn't like a particular kind of soup I had bought him. Don't know if this makes sense to anyone but me but having him TELL me how he FEELS about something (particularly if it's negative) is AWESOME!
