So I have D10 with me today since she doesn't have camp today. We were trying to figure out lunch plans and decided we'd see what my wife was doing. She had no plans and so the 3 of us went to lunch together. My wife was still a bit distance and not really talkative to me. In fact she really wouldn't look my way much.
Then she dropped a small little nugget about July 4th.
Background first, this coming week I and D9 will be at our beach house together along with our very close friends and their kids. These are friends that we have vacationed with for the last 7 or so years. Our closest married friends that we each consider the other family. On top of that he's my wife's boss and she's her best friend and my close friend too. I know seems a bit weird.
Well my wife was planning on going to the spa for the day on the 4th. I previously told her she is more than welcome to join us at the beach. If she did, great, if she didn't no problem because it's just an open invitation and that's it, no expectations.
So she dropped her nugget, she's joining us at the beach on Tuesday night, staying Wednesday and going back to work Thursday morning. To be honest I was floored by this. I couldn't believe she's going, especially given how she acted towards me this week.
Well I admit I told her I was a bit surprised and it was a nice surprise. She had zero reaction to that and what's funny is how she went about telling me about it. She was very matter of fact almost like she was trying extra hard not to show emotion or didn't have any to show.
So I am sitting here scratching my head wondering what's up. Is there some test going on? Well what ever it is I can't analyze it like I have in the past. I'll continue to be nice and show love. Faith, Hope and Love. I have Faith which instills Hope allowing us to Love.
