[QUOTE="gcvmom, post: 309617, member: 3444"] Well, he only took a nap until 10:30 this morning, so I guess that's an improvement! Then he got busy reading his emails, including the one I sent him earlier this morning about some jobs I looked up online at a local hospital website (not his industry, but they were looking for an IT person). That one email from me got him a little more focused today, so maybe I need to just bury him in leads. I even found a job opportunity off Twitter! Heck, if the head hunters can't come up with anything, at least I can give it the ol' college try, and maybe it will eventually lead to something. I swear, though, he is obsessed with MEALS now that he's home. He got up at 10:30 and the first things he asks is what's for lunch! And by 3:30pm, he's worrying about what we're having for dinner! And no, his waistline isn't getting any smaller since he's been off work. :p He did jump in when I started having a meltdown over the chaotic state of my pots/pans cupboard when I tried to put something away and was met with so much disarray that I couldn't get one pot back on the shelf. I just said I needed to walk away or I was going to scream, left the pot on the floor with the cupboard doors open and went outside for some air. Then I went upstairs to chill with the TV on for a half hour. He finished putting the dishes away and gave me my space, which I do appreciate. See? They CAN be taught! Our 20th wedding anniversary is this Wednesday. For some strange reason I can't seem to get too excited about it right now! He got a $25 gift certificate from a Mexican restaurant by his old office for signing up on their email list, so I think we'll go there for an early lunch that day. And I've been saving another $25 voucher I bought for $2 on that restaurants.com web site for a very nice French restaurant near us -- so maybe we can slip out for an early dinner without the kids, too.
