I'm fortunate in that my husband doesn't have many behavioral issues. He likes to rest most of the time. Sometimes it's the little things that break my heart. Yesterday, I put his clothes out after we showered. He came out wearing his pajamas and I explained that pajamas are okay after dinner, not before. He took it well though, and changed his clothes. May we all stay calm, encouraged and steadfast in what we must do. Thank you all.

It sounds like your husband likes pajamas after taking a shower. He apparently feels comfortable with the pajamas but you don’t. I feel that if my husband finds comfort with anything, It calms me down and we are both happy. I let go of rules and regulations because he is sick and I want him to be comfortable as he can be. Sometimes I wear my pajamas all day if weather is bad or I’m just lazy. Maybe you could put on your pajamas to join him and you will feel comfort together.
Prayers for you both.
