So after working from 8:30-5 at fulltime job, H went to retail job from 5;30-9:30. Now with the holidays approaching, he will have more and more hours on evenings and weekends. BLECH!
i fell asleep and woke up at 10:30...no H. Given our sitch, I went to a dark place and wondered where is he?!? **On a side note, he doesn't go out with friends after work, no 'buddies" to go to the bar with and when he is not working, he is either at the gym or at home.
Around 10:40pm, i texted him, "Everything OK?" A few minutes later, he responded, "Yes, Y?" I texted back, "OK, I just thought you worked until 9:30." no reply
At 11pm, he got home. When he came upstairs, I just said, "Hi...long night?"
He replied, "Yeah, I worked until 10:15. and I got a speeding ticket on way home. 47 in a 30..reduced to 42." Looks like it will be $$ plus points.
I honestly felt like laughing...me for being suspicious, but also for the fact that there seemed to be some sort of Divine intervention working.
This morning, he had a hair appointment (trying the hair club program to reduce receding hairline since DEC. Can you say MLC!?!?) at 7:30am. I was going to take S6 to a breakfast with Santa. **I was going to text H to see if he got done early, did he want to meet us there.
As we got closer to leaving S said, he wanted to relax and have breakfast at home. H called home and asked what time was the breakfast and I told him about S not wanting to go. He said maybe "he will want to go out for breakfast instead then." H asked to talk to S and mentioned eating out.
OK, here is where I goofed...when h got home they were getting ready, I was all showered and dressed. He kep saying, "Are you ready Bud, get your shoes on, etc." **Honestly, i didn't know I was included..i hoped, but didn't know!
I hear H say "Are you ready?" And S says, "Yes. Can Mommy go too?." H says, "Yeah. Are are you coming?" (he actually sounds surprised.
Now given the situation, I was taken aback...I wish I had just said, "yeah, let me get my shoes." BUT Instead, I said, "I didn't know if I could come." STUPID me!! *h looked at me like "What the h@ll?" Maybe I am reading into it, but I wish I had held my tongue!!
Here again, Divine Intervention was at work...S changes mind about breakfast allowing for some family time together and I BLEW it!
**I never was very religious, but after a year of being very depressed about the twins dying and all the grieve, I looked to prayer and church for comfort. Through that journey, I discovered rejoice marriage ministries. God speaks in mysterious ways!
