Yesterday was a pretty good day. H came to the house about 11. I thought I would go to Walmart to pick up some things and give him so alone time w/ Ds. D10 wanted to go w/ me and said H would be on the computer the whole time. I pulled out a fun game and suggested they play. I guess they had fun as when I got home they showed me pics they drew for the game.
Made lunch which we all ate together. H ran to work for a little bit to do a favor for me. Came back and took a nap upstairs. Went to church together. D15 went to a party and D10 and I went to pick up a friend for the Nutcracker. Got a later start than we planned and had a half hour drive. Realized the directions I had were not the way I wanted to go. Called and asked H to look them up on the net. H texted them to me. I didn't follow them because that was different from the way I normally go. Had to call H to let him know I screwed up and needed help. (UGH!!! I so hated doing that!) Made it to theater in time, H helped talk me through getting there, sent H a text to which he responded w/ humor. Leave theater at 9 can't find the freaking highway going the direction I need. End up in a neighborhood I did not want to be in. Turn around heading back in correct direction but still can't find the highway. (BY the way, if you aren't laughing at me by now, feel free too!) H responds to a message I left on his phone letting him know he may never see us again. Tells me just to get on a different highway. Try to explain the city we are in has the worst signage around and there are none that show how to get to either route. End up finding the highway I wanted. H calls and I let D answer because I am POed that he wasn't more helpful and made me feel like an idiot. All the way home I'm thinking about the text I'm going to send giving me a piece of my mind. PM is sitting on my shoulder telling me to give it 48 hours. H calls as I'm getting off of the highway. I apologize for interupting his fun evening w/ friend. H says I didn't and I express that I felt I was. We discussed the sitch and all is ok. Glad I didn't send the text. PM is so freaking wise! In between the stress I had a great time w/ D at ballet.
Lessons learned: 1. Take time to cool off before texting H. 2. Continue working on being more independent. 3. I really need a freaking GPS! LOL
