Looking back it's been a little over two years since I first noticed this. It's nowhere near over.
I'll admit this has thrown me for a bit of a loop. I made my mind up that this weekend I was going to have fun however. I had a great one. I saw three live bands, and had a family get together today that was a blast.
Guess who called today? She called while I was at my family get together. I think the call went good. She started out by telling me that my D5 got her first real haircut. "Well you might get mad at me but M got her haircut. She said she took pictures and is going to email them to me. I was the total opposite. I said no, why would I be mad? She said "she asked if she could and wanted to do it." I said no thats cool I can't wait to see her.
She asked if I would take the kids Thurs. night because her flight on Fri. was moved to early in the morning. I said yes that will work. She then asked if her dad could come get the bowflex on Wed. I said ok. She made no mention of any of her other things including the chest that she received from her grandmother as a wedding present. No surprise there. I'm not going to mention it unless she does. I have done this before in the past and she has responded negatively. So I will do something different.
During our conversation she could hear all of my family laughing and having a great time. She became quiet for a moment and then said "it sounds like everyone is having a lot of fun." I was upbeat the entire conversation. I said yeah we're having a blast. I said we are getting ready to head down the road and see a band here in a few. She said "oh yeah I heard about that on Sunday's, it sounds like a lot of fun."
She said "well I guess I won't keep you so you can get back to everyone now," but then proceded to kind of hang there for a moment. Finally she said, "well I guess I will see you on Thursday then."
I had a great weekend, I'm starting to get a handle on things again.
