A Fresh, New Day

[Pudmuddle]

I actually didn't hear any bad news, so it's good so far.

In fact, after I wrote on your thread that I had heard nothing from him all day, my phone went off and he was calling. I didn't answer. then I saw my work phone go off too, which got me to thinking hmmm, what does he want. I still didn't answer.

Then he sent a message to my phone that there was a big accident and that I should take another route home. Awww.

I waited and then sent back 'Ur sweet to let me know. thank you!

He and I used to think of each other and then one of us would call the other at that same time. Used to be our ESP moments. I feel like it happened again! Because I was thinking of him and then he called me. Sigh. Aw.

Then while I was in the car driving he sent another text asking about some charges on our credit card. I didn't answer because I was driving. But when I got home I said 'Yes I did know about those'. Then I told him of some other charges. He said 'well just be careful cuz I can't pay those off all at once'. I was going to validate somehow but it didn't come out that way. Me spending money, even though I never spend a lot, has always been a source of minor tension for us. So I just said 'Yeah retail therapy' and then I grinned. He was kind of surprised at my answer said kind of taken aback 'Okaaay'.

Then we went into the kitchen because S was asleep on the couch and he started to talk to me about S's phone and how he was up all night with it. I said 'yeah, he has started that again'. We normally have him put his phone downstairs plugged in so he cannot access it at night.

Then I asked about some marks on his face (which I thought was a cold sore) and he said 'no it was a zit'. lol. then he said he had one up his nose and it hurt like heck and popped good. EW! lol. I just said grinning and laughing 'Gee, thanks for sharing that hon!' (the Hon was an autohabit response!) And I smiled big. I noticed that he really looked at my face when I smiled and it seemed to perk him up.

Interesting.

Then I left the room, went upstairs to change. Came back down to get some water and then was looking at the tv. He then came back into the room and started talking to me about the accident that was on my drive route home, and then also the one I warned him about last night. It was nice light convo.

Then he left for kickboxing/karate class and said Ok see ya later.

Seemed like we did ok. Pud is still being PrudencePatience.
