OK...first of all...I LB'd big time when my H got home last night. I couldn't help it...I was in a mood.<BR>We were getting ready to go to his parents house and he was laying on the bed and I was sitting on the edge of the bed....he gave me a few little touches on my back. More like I had something on it and he was brushing it off than an affectionate gesture...but it was a touch. He asked me what was wrong.....he asked for it. If he asks I'm gonna spill.<BR>I said.....you told you would work with me on MB and the papers were still sitting on the table a week later not filled out so I threw them away. You obviously don't have time to work on this marriage or just don't have a desire to.<BR>Next time I walk into the kitchen they are back on the table...he got them out of the trash.<BR>I asked him if he realized that by her name being mentioned when he talks to the 2nd shift supervisor on the phone that it makes it harder for me to deal and cope and it makes it even harder when I have to hear him say how good of a worker she is. I told him that in order for us to work and me to cope....there has to be no reminders.....and her name and him talking about her is a BIG one. He agreed that from now on....NO mentioning the OW on the phone in front of me.<BR>(they have alot of problems with the other people on 2nd shift because none of them like her and they are always complaining about her...so my H gets called about all the whining)<BR>Just a note....he doesn't actually talk casually to this woman at work...I have that on good faith...but he can't completely ignore her either he's the boss. The most he says to her casually is Hello and he tells her what needs to be done. Guess I will have to deal with that. He can look me straight in the eye and tell me that there is nothing going on.....plus I have eyes all over the factory now.<BR>Anyway...that was over....we are on our way to his parents.<BR>We get over there....get the kids in the door (he's holding the door open for us) and all of the sudden he grabs me and gives me a big kiss. WOW! 2 shows of affection so far.<BR>Ok...we get home and discover we are out of milk...I decide I'll get out in the rain and get it. He requests I take our oldest so she won't complain later about nobody doing anything with her so we can have some "alone" time later. WOOHOO.....I'm likin this day better than ever!<BR>Alright....my daughter and I get back from the store and guess what my H is doing....he's reading the papers I printed out from this site! Man he is winnin points big time tonight!! lol<BR>And yes.....we did end up getting our "alone" time. <BR>BIG SMILES HERE!!!!<P>Heather<P>
