After a very long day, kids finally asleep, sunken deep into the basement couch, we realize we forgot to bring down the baby monitor. Who’s going to go get it?
I am. Be right back.
You can’t really argue over this one… every moment that passes counts. What if baby’s crying and we can’t hear her because we’re wasting time arguing about who’s going to go upstairs to get the monitor. Now that I did this one, he’ll have to do the next thing that comes up. With 3 kids in the house anything could come up any time.
Later when the washer stops I’ll ask him to empty the washer into the dryer. Last time he did, I heard him yell from the washroom “For once I’d like to open the washer and find MY clothes in there!”
It’s true, it’s never his laundry. It’s always the girls’ pink laundry.
Jack’s yelling at the TV again. Good thing I’ve got this blog. What else would I be doing while he watches the game?
What do the wives and girlfriends of the world do while the guys are watching the game? I’m sure some really enjoy it and others only pretend… Let’s not go there.
Well a confident woman doesn’t need to pretend about anything. Life is too short to pretend anything. We should focus on being real. Reality has become a rarity and it’s sad.
So our deal is I blog while he watches the game. That’s why I hope our team goes to the playoffs.
From laundry, to pretending, to hockey. “You need more structure in your texts” someone once told me.
I need more structure in my head!
This is exactly how thoughts go through my mind, I go from topic to topic and it’s exhausting. If I’m exhausting myself with my thoughts imagine how it must be for Jack to hear me talk about everything that I’m thinking about. This kind of thought process combined with decreased memory is a complete disaster.
It’s all good with Jack as long as it’s not during the game.
It’s easy to keep a man happy.
Ouf! Big statement I just made there and I stand by it. Most men are clear about what they want and don’t want. Now whether or not we have the will to allow it…well that’s another thing.
Note I wrote “Most men”. I know a few men who seem pretty complicated from my point of view…
Games over, home team lost…
Got to go.
