loving distance

[courageous wife]

Hi RW!

I've been ok today, thanks!!! I hope it wasn't the wrong thing I felt it would be ok to call H this morning to remind him to pick up rent. We have a rental house and he is the one that picks up the rent $ and I have ALWAYS had to remind him. I called his cell when I knew he would still be working and just left a short message in a pleasant tone "hi, just wanted to remind you that it is time to pick up the rent and deposit it. thanks" He didn't call back which is fine but I checked the bank today and he hasn't deposited anything so not sure if they didn't have it, he didn't get it, OR he kept it as they always pay cash. I really can't make the payment for HIS hot rod until I get that rent money! :-)

I had an eye appt this morning to get back into contacts as I have just been wearing glasses and I always feel better in contacts and thought while I still have insurance I would do that. Then, I went to the bank and opened up my own checking acct. That went well until she asked me if I wanted to put someone on there in case of death. My kids are minors and I obviously don't want H's name on there right now. So, I put my brother as he will know what to do. I didn't think about it at the time but guess I will have to change who is on my savings accts. if we end in D.

I am starting to make a list of things he and I need to talk about besides the R such as finances and if H wants to spend some time with the kids. I assume he is staying with OW so if he wants a weekend with the kids, I will offer our house and go visit a family member or friend for a couple of days.

I had kinda a funny thing happen to me today. I was home alone and on the bedroom phone upstairs talking with my brother and had music going in a different room so had the door shut. I was talking about H to my brother and could hear a floor board squeak and thought my heart was going to stop! Turned out it was one of the dogs!!! They are not allowed upstairs but I guess he must have wanted to see what I was doing...had to laugh after that!

I go back to work tomorrow after a long weekend. I normally work alone on Tues. but have a new person starting tomorrow. Kinda dread it but kinda think it might be a good thing so that if there is any down time, I won't dwell on all of this!

Glad you are doing well and if you have any comments on anything I would be glad to hear them!!!!
