I'm in, wife's out

[trc2009]

It's funny because my wife and I both regard Valentine's Day as being pretty lame. In the past, we'd give each other cards (funny ones because we're both pretty sarcastic) but neither of us really wanted or expected gifts.

Today, I have no intention of getting her anything (no gifts!). But what happens when I get to work? She was up this morning and posted a video on Facebook that was most definitely geared toward me.

I'm not sure if she did that because it's Valentine's Day or not, but I still appreciate the fact that she did that (she never posts stuff like that on Facebook). Even if I can't reciprocate. Obviously I'd love to, but I feel like I've laid some great groundwork on detaching and focusing on me so far. It's up to her to REALLY initiate the conversation of R. Not just a video on Facebook.

The good news is that when I was over there yesterday we agreed I can stop and pick up our kids Valentine's stuff and we'd give them to them together. And we did it without arguing! Small victories.
