K you are right, you/I shouldn't do anything just for your/my kids.
Fortunately/unfortunately, I still very much love my husband and I want him to stay here not just for the kids, but for me. But I want him to stay for ME not just for the kids, and I don't know that he can honestly say he is doing that.....make sense?
I did call H this morning around 11 to ask which grocery store in Omaha area has the best meat/produce. He is a meat man, so he knows his grocery stores, they are his customers...our small town grocer is fine for the usual stuff but I needed a lot of special stuff for Thanksgiving cooking....
Anyway he recommended a place near his work, I said thanks and told him I was getting the kids haircuts, too.
At 2:00 I get a call while I am in the grocery store. It was H. I said hello, I couldn't hear anything. I said hello again, he said "Hello!" loudly like he thought I couldn't hear him...
H: What's up
Me: At the store getting ready to check out
(10 seconds of total silence)
Me: I can't hear you, must be a weak signal in here...
H: No, I just didn't say anything
Me: Oh
(10 seconds of dead silence)
Me: You did call me, right?
H: Yeah
(5 seconds of silence)
Me: Did you need something?
H: Just wondered how it was going, if you got the haircuts or not...
Me: It went fine, we stopped for Chinese first, S wanted to invite you but we were already eating before he thought of it so I said maybe another time. Then we got haircuts for both kids, and groceries. Now we are in the checkout.
H: Oh, ok (silence.....)
Me: Ok then, I need to check out, call me later if you needed something
WTF was that about? He needed to see how it was coming? Getting haircuts and groceries isn't exactly rocket science...
