WAW - Very confused and devastated - pt 6

[confusedinpa]

Not sure if tonite would count as a good nite but don't think it was a bad nite

She picked up sandwiches for us for dinner on her way home from her apartment. The boys and I were still playing outside when she showed up. I was very upbeat and acted as I would after a great day playing with the boys

As we ate, the boys and I chatted about how much fun we had. We wound up finishing dinner early enough to go grab ice cream. While we were waiting on lin to the walk up windowe, she commented that her back was cold. I offered her my sweatshirt but she declined saying I would be cold. I told her I would be fine but she declined again. I ran my hand up and down her back to warm it up and asked if that felt better. She said it did

We finished eating dessert at home. While the boys watched their show before going to bed, my wife made some comment about talking tonite while she was surfing the web on her laptop. I didn't respond/react

We put the kids to bed. She was still surfing (shopping for stuff for her new place I presume). I didn't ask because I really didn't want to know

I straightened up the family room as she continued to surf the web. After I was done I laid on the floor to stretch out my back. I talked about things the boys did during the day.

She commented about how my mom called her crying telling her that I've changed and please give me another chance. I grimmaced and said I will talk to her. She said it was ok as my mom wasn't mean like last time. I said ok if she didn't want me to (I lied, my mom has to stop pressuring her so I will call her)

She finished on her laptop and went to put it in her SUV. I heard a crash. I ran out and found my wife on the ground. She tripped and fell. I went to help her up and see if she was ok. She bruised her mid-section/ribs on the recycle bin and hurt her left wrist on the concrete and her right arm was scrapped on the step

I helped her change and she needed to borrow sweats from me (guess she moved her sweats to the apartment already). I helped her back down to the family room. I asked if she needed anything. She asked for ice packs, water, advil and a blanket. I joked about how she was pushing her luck.

The she started laughing that she fell into the recycle bin. It was funny I said that I wished I had a camera. She called her mom to tell her. My wife was really cracking up about it.

The show we were watching ended and she went to bed. She thanked me for helping her. I joked that if she can't get out of bed to pee, she can call me for help. We then said goodnite

I guess with her bruised midsection, I don't have to worry about her initiating hugs

So another nite goes by
