IT has been raining so son and I "camped out" in the living room by the fire place. Wife still did sleep in son's room anyway...BUT..Today she worked most of the day in her "office" fixing her bed.... So let me back track a little. Son and I slept in living room by the fireplace all night. I got up as usual 6:00am and showered and made breakfast. Son got up.( He usually sleeps in with Wife until 9:00 - 10:00am) at 8:00. I asked of he wanted breakfast and he said yes so I made it for him also. Wife got up about 9:30 and showered and then went into her office. Son went in to see her and she started grumping about all of the noise we were making and how she had to get up and put ear plugs in. I thought to myself 'here we go I will be getting the cold shoulder treatment today' But I was wrong. When I went to talk to her she acted 'normal" no remark about noise or ear plugs... Surprise surprise surprise....
So she did move her stuff out of son's room. I mentioned to son if he wanted to..him and I could go to the store and get some stuff for "his room". Wife piped up that she wanted to do that. I said that's fine.. If she wants to take him go ahead… Then she said she was too busy so I could do it. So son and I went and found a few things but not what he wanted so I told him tomorrow we can go into the next town and look. When I got home I told wife what we planed and told her either she can come along with us if she wanted or or if she wanted to take him by herself I am ok with that. Again she said would be too busy so I guess son and I will be going.. I was going to go to the coffee shop tonight for some me time and to read but......
Today’s dare.. Day 4: Love is thoughtful
Contact your spouse sometime during the business of the day. Have no agenda other than asking how he or she is doing and if there is anything you could do for them.
SO what I did was helped her clean son's room and then I cleaned the carpet in the family room and then she wanted me to clean the floor in the family room. So I was too tired. This was really not a dare. I have always done this. Now tomorrow is a real dare....
Later Doc
And if I claim to be a wise man, well It surely means that I don't know
