So when W came out of her room, I could tell she didn't look good. I asked her what was the matter, she said head ache so I offered on of my monster back pills (they usually do the trick). I asked if it was head and neck or just head. She said both. I ALMOST said, you want me to rub your neck, but thought, no that is pursuing, so I figured if she wanted one, she would ask - I used to do this all the time. Well, no asking. But I did say go lay down and I will make dinner. Of course, she came back and said "I have been laying down..., but thanks for offering to make dinner." Over dinner, I paid attention to S19 as he started working today and we BS's during dinner - took advice (notice how many times today) and treated W like a guest that has been around awhile. I cleaned the dishes and said I am going to Trader Joes for milk and fruit (I rarely do this) and if anybody wanted anything. While there, knowing W loves Ben & Jerry's Cherry Garcia, I bought a couple of pints and when I got home said I got these for your headache. She said thanks and I walked away.
It is amazing how much the posts help you PMA - I expected nothing in return today, absolutely nothing, I was just being a nice guy, things I should have been doing and used to do years ago.
Me and kids are cleaning up the house for the housekeeper (I never understood that) because they have stuff all over the place. I need to tell W that we should probably discontinue with the housekeeper, but this is a small luxury that helps all around. We have two very big dogs that like to shed and run around the house...
This is the best day I have had in a long time. I even ate dinner - good old Trader Joe's - if you haven't had them, try the Maui Ribs!
Peace to all,
CBK
