Wedding Anniversary #39 today and almost anniversary #3 for being on the forum.
First mistake I made, according to BB's reaction was at 5:30 A.M. It is windy and BB voiced a concern we might lose the electricity, buy that we had a back-up generator and could make coffee if the electricity was off. I said we could go out for breakfast because the main street in town rarely loses power.
BB doesn’t want to eat out and wasn’t happy I was dragging my feet about setting up and using the generator for such a limited event. (then possibly not using it for 6 months to several years)
I didn’t feel like using it for such a short time and then have to drain the gas so the carburetor doesn’t gum up from just sitting around and gasoline doing it’s usual thing.
Also going out for breakfast didn’t seem to elicit any brownie points. I even may have lost a few.
The day will have some good things. BB wanted to go to the “Olive Garden” but, well there is her list that interfered with going several times in May. Today I am not listening to her “list.”
Mother’s Day, BB’s birthday, and our anniversary are all within 30 days of each other. I think of these events as something that should be pleasant. Truth is, for me it is something like a “triple witching hour.”
Someone is going to do something that the other person doesn’t like. I just try to get through May and June and think to myself, that is the way it is, has been, and is most likely going to be.
Back and foot rubs for BB, Yes; it is her anniversary. PBTS or more tonight? Who knows!
