    Afternoon all.

    Becles, Tara, MM AND Weezl. Yay!

    Having funny day today. DH was at the pub yesterday afternoon and came back with a bottle of wine which we drank between us. He went to bed and [strike]passed out[/strike]fell asleep before I had finished getting myself ready for bed, but woke up when I got into bed, and was still half asleep and incoherent, but had a big temper at me about god knows what. Stomed off, stomped out. Phone me up so I could let him back in as he hadn't brough his keys. Tried to talk to me about what was wrong, got in a temper, because aparently him being too drunk to explain himself properly means I wasn't listening ... etc etc. Meaning neither of us got very much sleep.

    There was a bit of not-talking-to-each-other on both sides this morning, but I've tried to be friendly and talk about normal non-contentious things, like being interested in his computer game and stuff. (Actually it looked quite fun, so I was actually interested :) ) Izzy didn't nap for very long, and wouldn't go back in her buggy for a walk or back into bed for more sleep, so I sat with her on the sofa, and we both ended up sleeping there for a bit, which I feel loads better for. But still ... grrrr... not what I had planned for today!
