Ok here is a such for everyone. W and I only talk about priorities, and child over the last month. A couple of times I've brought up some self awareness, semi-relationship questions over last few weeks, which she's briefly goes into with me, then shuts down. Ok. Now I'm pulling all the way back and not initiating any convo unless it has to do with S or Priorities, finances, etc. However, over the weekend my W and son contracted the flu. So I was running around taking care of them both in the house for whatever they needed to recuperate, vitamins, teas, etc, now that both are feeling a little bit better, and she is somewhat back on her feet, but is home with S, here is my convo from yesterdays, and today's text. Not sure if im going overboard with this since both are recovering, but it seems like cake eating to me. She is WAW, not WW. Currently IHS. Other than how was your day it's typically business as usual.
She sent me a picture of our S drinking his bottle yesterday, I inquired if he was feeling better, fever broke so he's good. Asked W to make a small list for groceries for S for me to pickup. Here is convo from yesterday into today. It's amazing how they reach out to you when they need something from you, or need you for something like you are still their husband.
W: All snuggled on the couch for our morning baba Me: That's cute how is he feeling and how is his temperature today? W: He seems slightly better, low grade fever at 100, and very cuddly... but doesn't not feel hot like last Night Me: Well that's a sign of relief. W: Spoke to pediatrician, said to keep him home and keep doin all we are already doing. Me: That's good Me: The rest of Jack's laundry and bedding in the dryer in case you need it. (Even before she caught the flu she was neglecting to put this stuff away which made it harder on me to dress him, have appropriate clothes available, and keep clean bedding. I freaked out on her about such recently,,but then try to emotionally remove myself, and address the situation and how his needs needs and convenience need to be met first. It's been an ongoing struggle for the last year for her to keep the bottles clean and ready as laundry prepared) W: Ok thanks W: Coconut milk Coconut water Saltines Apple juice, organic OJ Hershey's kisses
Me: Why the Hershey kisses? W: Because I just got my appetite back ... and my period. Me: Yeah... I understand the why....But that is something a husband would get for his wife... Me: You fired me as that... Remember?... W: I didn't fire you, just a suspension Me: Haha...okaaayy...lol...So until I get my "privileges" restored... I don't have to perform any husbandly obligated duties 😉 😁 W: Ok Me: There might still be a few on my window sill next to your V Day card. You're welcome to have them if there are any there. W: That's ok
Today W: Any chance you're willing to pick up a sick note from the doctor for me? If not, I need yo run over as soon as you're home.
