Nerves

Well, it has finally happened.  D and I got on each others' nerves in an extra big way recently.

Triggered by a number of things:

  • His decreased exercising 
  • My increased exercising 
  • Him realizing he hasn't taken more than 2 days off this year
  • My feeling down about the prospect of zero international travel this year and dealing with the insurance claim process
  • Him being on a new prescription that increases his metabolism which is having an adverse effect on his long distance cycling
  • Me wanting him to take more responsibility for his health 
  • Him not eating enough to counteract this new med
  • Me feeling tired of trying to meal plan for him
  • Him missing being able to have a drink (to be avoided with the med)
  • Me drinking more (one drink every 1 - 2 weeks)
  • Him being gluten and dairy sensitive
  • Me working on being meat free
  • His communication weaknesses in our relationship
  • Me being at home way more than before
  • His tendancy to spew out negativity and hostility when he cannot manage things
  • Me refusing to be his emotional punching bag
  • Me holding him to adult standards
  • Him not liking that
