It's progress I suppose

After a truly awful week, involving shouting, complaints, crying (mine), and only three hours of sleep a night, I am finally getting a breakthrough with Lionel. (the couples counselling seems to have done the trick) He ate nibbles out of my hand! I still feel he's plotting something, but that's okay.

It's amazing how much good that's done me.

btw, the shouting, complaints, crying and sleeplessness weren't to do with Lionel. They were an entirely different work related issue. Lionel cheered me up. I am not overly invested in the relationship with my hamster. Well, only slightly.
