H texted a little while ago that he needs to come get his shop vac because a friend wants to borrow it. I asked when he would come, and he responded that he'd let me know when he was on his way but that it wouldn't be too early.
As I was writing a text that asked him to ballpark a time, he sent another one that said he could "just get in the garage and get it, don't need to come in so don't worry about the house, supposed to rain some tomorrow so I'm not gonna move anything tomorrow" After he received my text about a time, he said his ballpark time would be between 8:30 and 10.
I then texted to let him know that it was NOT going to rain tomorrow. I said that I'd be happy to clear out for a few hours so that he could get in the house and do what he needed to do.
His response was this: "Nah I'm good I have laundry and stuff to do, might go see [lifelong friend]"
I texted that it was no trouble at all and that if he changed his mind, then he could just let me know. He answered back, "Ok"
In keeping with my new pledge, I will NOT try to guess what he's thinking or feeling. I WILL admit that I don't understand.
