Joie, Figure Eight Demolition...Normally happens at county fairs, and festivals throughout the state. So its an all summer long thing, which sucks we have yet to got on a summer family vaction any where. This is a big thing for me. I remember going on camping trips with my family, we went to the Sleeping Bear Sand Dunes, the UP and various places up there, and places like that. Our D has been to Traverse City serveral times, with MIL and her H, and she has been places with my parents but we have NEVER taken her any place other than with us to the fairs and festivals. And this is just a drive in to where they are and back home that night.
Today was a bit rough for me. We had a bowling tournament for the union that H belongs to. Let me start with last night...One of the problems that I have with H, he feels that what ever he says goes, for EVERYTHING. He thinks that he is listening to me but it always and I mean always comes down to the fact that he will still do what he wants to. Yes I have told him this and have called him out on this several times. But its just not sinking in. I don't know what else I can do about it. I am also telling him about other things that I would like him to do and still for a little bit he does it but then goes back to the behavior that he did before me saying anything. Last night it came up, which I knew that it would, about the rear end that he wants to get, and wants two of them. The total cost is 3500, I am pretty much against this for a couple of reasons. One he has known that he wants this and has done NOTHING to save for it, and two I just can not see spending that much money on something like that. He racing always comes first, and I have to wait to get things done around the house. Example, the drainage pipes in the house have needed to be replaced for over 5 years now. They have been leaking for that long, but he has gotton plenty of parts and cars for racing instead of fixing the plumbing in the house. I could go on and on about things but I have been blamed for score keeping and focusing on the negative too much, so I won't. I have been told that I need to focus on the postive stuff that goes on.
So today I kept thinking did I do the right thing, is THIS what I REALLY want. I keep thinking why did I work so hard to keep this guy when he was thinking about leaving me? I don't know why other than she could have him. I wish at that point I would not have tried so hard, sad to say.
