Sherry - I know that you feel a little get-away for yourself may be rocking the boat....but if you feel this is something that will improve your PMA, then I would hope your H would understand and not get angry. I know "easier said then done" I feel that way at times too, scared to rock the boat for fear it might unsettle things.
I think it's great your H tried to cheer you up - and that pet name game was good positive - and the reality is he is home now and you two are working on a new future, not the old past
