Hi all.

Back from my little 'vacation' haha...actually been back for a couple of days, but I've been busy catching up on things around here, so I haven't had time to do much more than lurk.

Not much is new. I came home briefly on Fri, interesting to note that H immediately started in on picking...kinda sad to think that is the only way he can connect with me...as we were both tired, I think we did pretty good to not let it degenerate into anything worse.

On Sun, he started in again when I got home, but I was not going to let him spoil my mood, so I was able to diffuse things with my positive attitude. Unfortunately, I was so exhausted that I really had to go to sleep after I got the kids to bed (first good night sleep in a week), and H has had a nasty flu since then, so it hasn't been much more than me deflecting jabs, and H finally starting to calm down, we had a pleasant talk this morning.

On Sun evening, when I went in to the computer room to say goodnight to H, I 'caught' him watching porn. OK, it wasn't really porn, a sort of cartoon joke about f*cking styles throughout the world, but really in our situation...H wasn't embarressed, actually made a joke and showed me the whole thing...I really wished I had been able to act on that...I had really planned on bringing it up (in a pleasant way) on Mon, but H was in bed with fever...I still plan on using it as an opening for a new convo...let you know what happens.
