Uh-uh.
Everything is so negative. We had a good discussion yesterday (which he said he appreciated) about how he is always seeing the dark side of things: no joy in anything, nothing is fun anymore, can't travel, etc. Well, I can agree about the traveling--I'm willing to admit that I can't do lots of things anymore, just because the physical part of me is wearing out. But now it's getting to be mental. There's nothing I do that suits him (big ruckus at supermarket because when we're loading the car, he asks if I got his margarine and then said I never did anything for him, anything that he wanted I ignored, etc.) and I'm so fed up I don't want to say anything beyond 'yes' or 'no' to whatever he says.He also HAD to go up to the doc to pursue the matter of his prescription and whether or not another doc had been in touch so that they could agree about his medications. HAD to do this as soon as he'd brought in the groceries, no stopping for a bite to eat, despite the fact that we'd passed up on lunch out, mostly because I couldn't get him to say if he wanted to stop.
It's all so pointless, living with this new man. Not that I shouldn't have seen some of it coming. He always was prickly about some things and I just learned how to work my way around them but now a 24/7 pattern of behavior that sets my teeth on edge is getting to be too much to handle.
But what do I do about it?
