As if we'd let you go without making a new thread...yeah, sure it sounds like you have full closure on everything right now!
I must say there are a lot of good posts here LL...some very thought provoking questions.
Since you've done me the favour, I'll return it. You've called me on a few things (oprions and such) which I prematurely dismissed out of hand so here you go:
You say that going out with friends is about "geography"...okay I'll assume that means you guys don't live near your old dear friends/family?
So...what about new friends? ARE you taking classes right now? If not DO IT!
Another idea I had was screw H, become pals with the "football wives" on your own!
There are a lot of possibilities there! Inside info, commisseration, de-facto inclusion on "couples" events.
Now about this "I'll be home by XX" and then NOT, well this IS a bugger! ...CJ was BAD for this...I'm just going for a few, won't be late....5:30 a.m. he comes home.
I'm pretty sure that his main motivation for doing this was to preempt a negative interaction with me....it's what he'd grown to expect.
I finally told him to make no promises about that at all, that way I would just assume he'd be out late and get on with my own evening, go to sleep etc. But I did it matter of factly, and I'm SURE that threw him off!
Feelin' for ya LL.
And Tony....your photo inserts just crack me UP...especially the latest one
ya see..I'm tired of starting threads and in a half hearted attempt to leave the bb I made "my last thread" and have stuck to that...however KAW got wise and started one on my behalf and now kitti seems to not want me to go either...
I guess ya'll just like the entertainment of LL's as the freakin world turns...so here I stay.
thank you kitti! it really does feel good to know people care..gee am I being a bit passive aggressive with my refuseal to start any more threads? or just stubborn?
shiny,
well...I've told h not to give me a eta anymore...or I just try not to listen when he does..but to tell your son you'll be home before he wakes only to not show up until mid afternoon the next day? c'mon now! they of course have made up but h I believe is still pissy with me for giving a crap!
as far as the other football wifes? I've only met them in passing over the years..the guys were actually originally bil's buddies...h doesn't "want" to hang out with them as couples....I don't either to be honest at least not on any regular basis..plus if they were to get comfortable around me I'm sure it would just lead to trouble as they are all (both h's and wives) all from the same neighborhood...h's neighborhood..I'm sure they hold secrets and stories that h would rather not have me hear.
oh ya, I just thought of another thing to be annoyed about...the other day when h drove into boston with me..we were supposed to get lunch...he said he didn't have time cause he had to get ready for the storm...that's fine..but is it fair that you MAKE time in the middle of the storm to go to a football game??
You say that going out with friends is about "geography"...okay I'll assume that means you guys don't live near your old dear friends/family? yes but I do still get together with that gang at least once a month...the drive is about an hour each way and I make it alone cause h usually doesn't care to go
So...what about new friends? most of the friends I've made up here are also mothers of youngins and though we've talked about going out without the kids plans always seem to fall through. I did make plans to go check out kareoke at a chinese food resteraunt fri night with my mom and a local friend plans to come along ARE you taking classes right now? If not DO IT! the next two weeks...tues and thurs from 7pm-11pm hazmat course
LL, I have to tell you that if I were in your shoes, I would probably be locked up in a sanitorium...I'm talking about how I really cannot begin to understand how it is with wee children.
One of the main reasons I really never wanted children is that I didn't think I could handle the responisibility, change in lifestyle, stress.
LL, I have to tell you that if I were in your shoes, I would probably be locked up in a sanitorium...I'm talking about how I really cannot begin to understand how it is with wee children. depends on what type of support system you have...but for the most part...kiss your right to nap or have your own time good bye for at least several years...oh ya and the sense of guilt when you do take time off during the day to just do your own thing.
