Glad you had a good weekend. I ended up calling in today, which is something I'll regret later this week because we're in a tight release schedule at work. After repairing my makeup 4 times, I just gave up. We had the fight this morning, and it's just getting harder for me to deal with the whole mess. I probably could have gone to work if I'd had some industrial-strength concealer on hand:(
My H's dad and brother drove here for the football game yesterday (they're about 2 hrs from us). They called and asked us to meet them afterwards for dinner. Then they called to say that the brakes on his brother's car weren't working well, and they might be coming to our house after the game instead. His brother told us weeks ago when we were down visiting that he needed brakes for the car. He has another car that he could have driven, and his dad also has a car. Anyway, my H said he probably was going to have to drive them home - about a 4 hr. trip for him after 7:00 p.m. AND after working 7 days a week for the last several weeks. Plus, he cannot afford the extra gas or extra mileage right now. They ended up driving back home after the game but left us hanging as to whether we were meeting them or they were coming here. I thought the whole thing was a little inconsiderate.
He later gave my daughter a ride to a friend's house, and I asked him to pick up something for me on his way back. He told me that he would miss part of the hockey game; he wouldn't have because it was between periods and right on his way. Ok, I probably shouldn't have said anything...I pointed out that he would have missed most, if not all, of the game if we'd met his brother and dad for dinner AND he certainly would have missed it if he drove them home. He accused me of being jealous of him possibly driving his brother and dad home.
My only point was that it was wrong for him to be even put into that potential situation. It does hurt me that he will do anything for anyone BUT nothing for our situation. I can't help feeling that way, maybe it's just a part of this whole thing...he didn't even have a lousy 15 minutes for US this entire weekend.
