Over the weekend, I invited her to come with us to pick up a Christmas tree for the house. She said okay and stayed to decorate. After we were done, I dropped her off at her sister's place only to find out that her car had been broken into.
The shattered her passenger side window and just took some spare change. Nothing big. She looked pretty depressed, but told me that I could go back home and that she'd wait for the cops. I told her 'no way' and that I was going to stay because that's what husbands do. So I cleaned up the glass and assisted the cops with the report. Afterwards her sister came home and she gave me a hug and thanked me for taking care of her sister.
I gave my W a hug and told her that she can call me any time she needs something, then left with the kids.
She took Monday off to take care of the logistics of getting her glass replaced. On Tuesday, I ordered a simple bouquet of flowers to her office with a note saying that I know she had a rough weekend and hoped these cheered up the rest of her week. She actually called twice to thank me as I let the messages go to Voicemail.
Yesterday we had dinner together with the kids and she was in a grouchy mood as it looked like she was pretty tired. After dinner, I wished her goodnight and left. I emailed her later today to apologize for being late with our kids yesterday and appreciated her joining us for dinner.
This weekend, we're taking our D to march in a local parade. We'll probably have dinner after. Tonight though, I'm going out with my friend.
Life is complicated but good!

Emotion, yet peace. Ignorance, yet knowledge. Passion, yet serenity. Chaos, yet harmony. Death, yet a new life.
