For the Guy with Kids and a WW 8

[hopeful4her]

Thanks peeps.

Her reply pi**ed me off. I replied what I thought was a nice email with a simple request and question. I think ya'll could read her snippiness. That is ALWAYS the case with her. Her taking things the wrong way and then I have to retort that it was just a simple question. I'm sick of apologizing for my question. I used to say, "I'm sorry you took it that way, but...."

Not no mo.

AT, I sure can see it going that way as well. Your good.

Karen, you without smileys is just wrong.

Hey Jeff. I kept up, just have said much to ya. Thanks for keeping up with me. The ups and downs? Yeah. I guess they will NEVER stop. The difference is that now I know that it is me that puts me there for the most part. Not roomie.

Yup. No choice. Thats what I explained to D11. But we will make the best of it.

And I know you have your ups and downs. You just don't really write about it here. But I know.

Roomie was home before me today. Milagro. Thats "miracle" for you non spanish speakers. I was at the office today from 7:15 to about 6:30. Long day. She is cooking burgers. I let her cook. Kids ask me if we are going to Spectrum tonight. I decide against again. I'm just tired. Roomie is acting like nothing. I am acting the same. Kinda nice. I ask a question about dinner first. A few words to each other. We eat watching the ending of The Scorpion King. She is dozing off. She gets up and picks up her and the kids plates. Not mine.

But she came back and picked mine up too. She asks all the kids if they want to go to the store with her. We need dog food again. They all go. S14 asks if he can be dropped off at Spectrum for a little while while they shop. They are off.

I'm straightening up in the kitchen. She walks by, "Welll, I guess we'll be back later."

"Okay."

From her email, it obviously sounds like she IS going to move slowly. I figured.

I was thinking that since I didn't know, she was either going to hire someone or take Friday off and move herself. My mind's been racing that she would enlist the help of OM because he has a truck. I don't think that she would, but who knows. She has told me that he has never met the girls and that he won't. He doesn't know where we live, too. So she says.

What kind of love it that? What a stupe.

So, instead of "Gone Baby Gone" on Friday, she's gonna be "Sorta, Kinda, Nearly, Almost Gone Baby Gone".

So I guess my countdown will be slightly extended.
