Oh, Gud. I'm so sorry. That's so hard, and I don't know how else you could handle the work thing. I mean, when you have to work, you have to work.
Does she work outside the home?
Plus bonus points for use of the word 'mosey'.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Asking what she wants for dinner? I don't see what is angry-making in that.

I'm a sahm. Dh helps (a lot) but I don't think I get mad at him when he doesn't or can't. We mostly have an inside (me)/outside (him) split with chores (and we're both not top notch about getting things done in a timely manner, so we generally try to shut up about the other person's sins of omission). What sort of housework are you talking about?

Gotta agree with Robin, here. Please someone, ask me what I want for dinner.

It's complicated and passive aggressive.

Huh. Sounds like when she gets mad, what it's about isn't what it's about, which is pretty standard. Does she have a good circle of adult friends to talk to? Did she work before she had the kidlets?

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
Yay for Calli's bits!
Why not - she'd love it. Mind, I expect everybody to load up on makeup and everybody else to buy clothes too. There might need to be some eating and drinking involved as well.
Hec is a cruel, cruel man, but I'm sure we'd suffer through. Nobly.
must see j. in person soon
Yes! Must meet erika! (Hec flatters, BTW. We love him anyway.)
Oh, Gud. I'm so sorry, sweetie. Hugs. You've got some good adive up there, and a whole lot of love.

I don't either, but it totally rings a bell as one of those totally-non-important things that somehow becomes a big deal when there's a lot of unrelated resentment coming from somewhere. I think dinner is not the issue.

Rings mine, too, because that's how both Paul and I are. Usually, we're able to break through the surface reason to articulate the underlying issue, which is good.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

Glad to hear the girlie bits are OK, Calli.
That is such a sweet offer, and I may take you up on it. You're planning on being at the dinner for Abi week after next, yes?
I just can't stand to see you suffer. :) AFAIK, yes. Have we firmed up a time and place yet?
