When it rains...

It seems kind of fitting that this works not only as the age old cliche, but for the weather as well. It has been pouring intermittently, which normally I would relish in, but the lack of sunshine has been getting to me I think.
It's been a rough couple of days for me emotionally.
It started with an e-mail I got from the hubs a few days ago. I had written him, asking him to take care of some of the financial issues we've been having, namely a $20k bonus the military has owed us for 3 years along with a credit card that his recruiter opened in his name which has been past due and collecting interest for about 2 years now. Both pretty big things in my opinion. His response? "I love you, but you can be a real spaz"
No response to any of the e-mails talking about how much I missed or loved him, how our son got his first tooth (which, yay! finally!), or anything else. And he hasn't responded to any e-mails I've sent since.
Yesterday I took a trip into the past by looking at old photos, e-mails, letters, etc from back when we first started dating. I had one of his letters in my pocket so that I could take it out and read it. After a day of wallowing and resisting the urge to buy ice cream I decided to clean a bit and do laundry to make me feel better.  Liam went to bed pretty soundly and slept for 6 hours straight, so it felt like a good night.
This morning I got my jeans out of the dryer to find his letter, crumbled to bits. I lost it, just burst into tears.
And on top of everything I feel like a fat blob. My goal was to lose all the baby weight before the hubs got home, but I feel like I'm moving in the opposite direction. No matter how much I exercise I don't feel like I'm losing anything. Maybe I'm PMSing for the first time in well over a year. It would explain the bloating and carb cravings, and the moodiness. Whatever it is, I don't like it, and I want it gone.
