H went out and did some farming, called me first to make sure it was ok with me. I just affirmed, said, "Lucky you! I want to ride on the tractor! Seriously, the harvest needs to come in and your dad needs your help. Go ahead..."
I used to pout when H was gone for the evening so this has been a 180 for me. Just a couple weeks ago, H said he didn't get why I was NOW being supportive of his spending time on the farm, and he wanted to know when I was going to start complaining again...I may have surprised him that I am still not complaining about it...
Anyway he came home, I was putting kids to bed. Once I came out we sat on the couch and watched tv for a bit while D2 kept coming out of her room. We took turns putting her back into bed, it was nice, it felt like we were a team...
Somehow in the course of us sitting there D finally went to sleep, hallelujah! Dan turned the channel and it passed the one we had watched The Notebook on.
Out of nowhere H says, "That was a depressing movie....geez" I said, "How did you find it depressing? I thought it was sweet..." Then I realized that was negating his thought, so I asked, "Was the story line depressing to you, or it got you thinking how you want something like that?" He said it was more the second part...then he told me he looked up the script online at work yesterday and re-read some of the parts!!??!! WTF? I wish I had asked what parts....I just asked him what website, told him maybe I would check it out.
So I guess one little movie has him thinking. Don't know if that is good or bad...He went on to share his feelings for a minute, then tried to pull it back, said "All of that is probably just a bunch of hooey". The conversation went downhill from there in a fun way, I told him I'd never heard him use the word hooey before, he said he didn't think he'd ever said it before...then we came up with other silly words for 'hooey'....
