Yesterday was a quiet day, work wise, life wise, no lane closures during rush hour due to 4 people trying to disprove physics of occupying the same space at the same time...
(Major accident Tuesday night it was a FUGLY ride home)
Carpool Buddy and I left at 3 instead of our usual 3:30 - he had an appointment. No worries, got home a bit early, walked the dog, started my work out DVD... Bubba came home.
Bubba took the day off -- he was supposed to go on a motorcycle ride, but with LuLu II in for a great deal of work to be done -- well he apparently slept in, after waking up with me for some reason, walked the dog, went to the courthouse and registered our new wills, called me when there was a small issue, went to the movies and came home early. He got left overs for dinner.
He also told me that he would "most likely" be putting in his 2 week notice next week. Yeah - OK. I'm taking a wait and see approach.
My bigger fear is darling Bubba, home, alone, without his motorized toy, without a job... heaven help me. The honey-do lists will become a frequent and regular thing... oh yeah.
I thought about that as he had the day off and I was still the one unloading, loading the dishwasher, making dinner and tending to 600 other things. You quit - you will have something else to do my darling husband. To quote my father "house bitch".
On a completely different subject but in the area of nits to pick - I mailed two things on Monday, I know one arrived because I got a nice one line electronic message, "Hey Ang thanks for thinking of me! Appreciate the books!" The second thing I mailed, was expected, to people I am related to (by marriage) and is a gift, one of many sent to this address - and I got nothing. Next time I talk to these folks I always ask -- "Did the gift for X arrive?" after all there are 4 little darlings and I send gifts - not always on time, but I do something. Not that I get a thanks - rarely. Its usually when we're back home and I get "oh yeah, thanks Aunt Ing for the gifts. We really appreciate it."
Yeah, ok, Hey, if this is all I have to complain about - life is not bad.
Taken into prospective, I have a good job, a roof over my head, food in my belly and my health is good, I can come and go as I please - life does not suck. Doesn't mean that I am content to sit back and let things ride by - but I have to step back and look at the bigger picture on occasion and say Thanks for all I have. And to remind myself that gluttony is a sin. ;-)
All right signing off for a Thursday, a one hour shortened work day we see the Plastic surgeon today to make some decisions, and away we go!
Take in your big picture today and remember the good stuff.
