I'm looking forward to work this afternoon. I'm in a reflective mood this morning, a bit of a funk really. I do really well when I have somewhere to be and no clue when I don't have places to be.

Anywho, my daughter was sick this morning and my wife and I discussed leaving her home from daycare today. My wife left for work and I organised the girls and my sick daughter wanted to go. They only go one day a week at the moment so I know she really wanted to go. I checked her temperature and it was fine so I sent her with her sister. My wife asked me to take our vacuum cleaner into work so I dropped it off after dropping the girls off and she collected it and went back inside with just a "thank you".

My wife sends me a message just now saying "did you forget to tell me X went to daycare?" In my head I'm saying "no, I didn't forget because you didn't ask and you never do." I struggled a bit with the actual response, typing and deleting a few times. I settled for "I wasn't asked if X stayed home. She wanted to go to daycare so I checked her temperature and let her go."

So bloody frustrating sometimes.
