"My husband started encouraging me to go the gym. It seemed like a really supporting gesture at the time, but he was starting to build a case. He could then say: 'I tried to help you and you still didn't do it.' He also said: 'I've progressed and you haven't'."
Hoooy boy! Reading back over those emails from H made me realise just how much projection was going on....
Anyway, H rang this evening to speak to D. I picked up as she was out playing. My Caller ID service will kick in in a day or two, but I knew it was H anyhow. He was all bright and chirpy, asking, did you have fun at the swimming pool? I was polite and talked a little about D's cycle ride on Sunday, then said I would get D to talk to him later.
She of course saw the new phone and squawked with excitement, and told her Dad all about it. Then after the call she started whining to me about wanting a mobile phone. There's a long story about that, which I won't go into here, but I have basically said she is too young to have one. Of course her Dad will maybe give her one and then she will buy the card with "her money" (from him etc etc.)
Anyway, if I'm going to be on target for a reasonably early night then I need to get to bed!
