So today did not start off very good for me. We went to the Y and went swimming. I asked Mike if he would go get the two oldest children from seminary and take them to school and come back and pick me up. We usually leave together and get ready at home. Figured this time I would try getting ready there and be ahead of schedule. Well, that didn't work out so great.
As we walked into our separate locker rooms, Mike asked if I had my cell. YEAH! Didn't think much more of it. Then I went about my business took a shower and put my make up on. Came out a little after 7 am just about the time he should be back from dropping David and Krystal off at school.
I waited...and a few minutes later got a text message from him asking, how you looking? Immediately answered....I'm outside! So I waited and waited. About 10 minutes later waiting outside (keep in mind it was 18 degrees this morning) I called and asked Mike if he forgot about me? No, he said, I was waiting to hear from you. When I told him that I responded to his text within seconds. He said, oh my phone was on vibrate.
I was livid!
Well, Mike being the easy going guy he is, said I'll be right there. He didn't see the reason I was so upset. He had been at home to get his phone and got side tracked (distracted) talking to the 3 younger children that were still home.
It was probably a good thing I was outside because I was HOT and cold all at the same time. There is a good point to this story. Even though I was so upset with Mikey this morning as the day has gone on I remember why I didn't kill him and why I love him so much. (even though...sometimes he makes me crazy)
He is a wonderful husband and father!
He works just as hard on his days off as he does on "normal" work days
He can build just about anything! He made this gate on one of his days off and during his vacation he built us a new base to our king size bed. It is amazing and all made from scratch. (will post a picture later)
So Mike.....even though you forgot about me today, I sure do love you. It just takes time for me to cool off sometimes! Someday we may even be able to laugh about this morning. (just not soon)
