When my husband and I are on the outs with one another for some reason or another I usually intuit that he's not happy either and I love making him happy? That's my job :-) So, I try to thaw the pretend somewhat if I'm feeling better and have the time by doing nice things he'll see and appreciate; make a favorite meal, "pickup" some task alongside of the ones we were fighting about and even bring up some of what we were fighting about in a directly indirect :-) way.

I hope your day at work, your drive, etc. goes a bit better and when you get home you're not so tired or stressed. Maybe you can start a conversation about the presents she bought last night, if she got everything she needed to and, if not, see if she has ideas for a babysitter and you'll "drive" her to the store and the two of you enjoy a late evening snack somewhere afterwards or something, a little mini date of some kind. I love when my husband drives me places so I don't have to worry about traffic or parking, etc. And I just like having him along. It provides a space for the two of us to talk away from our normal duties.
