Well, I do know that when H gets home very late it bothers me. It also bothers me when he comes early and catches me off guard and throws my evening off track. And, it bothers me that he comes and goes as he pleases without answering to anyone! How's that for never being happy? I just try and go with the flow, but we had bad storms last night and there was a physical job that required both H and I and it has to be timely. This morning as I was ready to leave for work H asks if I have time to help him. Maybe I shouldn't have or maybe it doesn't matter but I told him he should have made sure to get home early enough to do it last night, but then I did help him. H gave me a look, not sure but I read it as a sheepish look because I actually said something.
Anyway, while life is better there are tons of things that are not yet ok but I try to focus on what's good. What icon do I use for that? lol

It's getting a little old listening to H crab about the quality of work I'm getting from the kids that hang around here to help me with stuff. I explained that if they can do it 95% right and I just go back and do the 5% left it still saves me time and it gets done. blah blah blah I guess it's another phase..........how.....many......more....???????
We go our different ways this weekend but both for horse stuff. A little break is good.
Maybe we need a Beer Summit.

Piglet? how are you? How nice to see a face from the past! How are you and your family? A little history for anyone reading - Piglet is one among us who 'made it'.
I figure if a Beer Summit works for the president maybe I should try it too!
We had a bit of a rocky Thursday night and Friday as H's horse came up lame and he had to figure something out and go to plan B. He said things placing the blame on me for his horse being lame. When I said how bad I felt about it (nearly crying I was)he said it wasn't my fault and he should have done things different.
Anyway, we each had our good weekends in separate states. I didn't place any higher than 2nd in this competition. 1st is always better but there were horses from at least 5 states and it was tough! Very proud of my mare! H had a good learning weekend too and talked a lot about it. I hope H can teach those things to me too so I can make improvements as well.
I called H once to joke about the horrific traffic I had to get thru, and asked how the lame horse was. Later we had a txt convo that spanned the night and morning, then we each went silent until we were both back home.
What I noticed when I hugged H goodbye, he really totally honestly hugged back (with one arm). b-a-b-y-s-t-e-p-s that leave me wanting it all!

Awww.. I'm sorry to hear about H's horse being lame. It sounds like he's softening? I recall grumbing and silence, not this man who backtracks and says it's not your fault. Baby steps I wish I could tell him how much life pride can steal away from a person! He clearly isn't going anywhere and I've never understood why he doesn't just give in and decide to be happy in your M!
We are doing well, thanks for asking Life has it's ups and downs, and we still have our issues, but we have them honestly now. J and I are about to start co-teaching a marriage class in our church. We are excited and scared at the same time. God has brought us farther than we deserve and we know he wants the same for others. I keep you in my prayers, WCW I remain amazed by your commitment and determination.
Hey, guess what! H and I were talking last night, about our weekend adventures again. He said he was embarrassed when one guy asked him why a horse as old as his wasn't better trained (remember this was the plan B horse when plan A horse came up lame). H has been riding and training some our horses ever since! More of the H I know returning.
I was telling him a story about my weekend and we got interupted by something. I didn't start back in after the interuption - BUT H ASKED ME ABOUT IT and I finished the story.
Someone called inquiring to buy H's truck. H said he would sell it, but then told me he wouldn't get approved for a loan on another one. This makes me so sad for him/us. We never had credit problems when we worked as partners.
More good things than bad lately, I'll take it!!

There does seem to be more of a crack opening up --- more so then before. Looking good!
