The Road Of Life

Traveling down the road of life has it's ups and downs. Sometimes there are bumps to go over sometimes pot holes. There are twist and turns. There are hills and mountains to climb and sometimes there is a dead end! That is how I kind of felt last week. I hit a dead end with no way to go and at the dead end was a cliff. Sometimes there are these plans that have been made, but that doesn't always mean they are going to happen the way it was intended. Where am I going with this well I will get to that.

My daughter was really sick I said that in my last post, but she wasn't getting any better and this was President's weekend. So I told my husband he should take her to urgent care on Sunday and his reply was, I will see how she is. Okay. This is a 17 year old who isn't going to say she is not feeling better! So I went to work he still didn't take her to urgent care on Sunday or on Monday. I didn't say anything. No here is where things get a little bit hairy. I come home on Tuesday morning after a hard night at work and all I wanted was a hug from my husband. I didn't get it, instead I got I don't want you to go to bed I need to talk to you and I am taking our daughter to urgent care this morning she still isn't feeling better, okay I didn't say I told you so!!
He takes our son to school comes home sits down and just starts saying this stuff that just took me by surprise! I mean I couldn't believe he was saying this to me. So, we have arguement like any normal couple does and usually it is about money and bills and such and everything is said and done and we make up.

So he wanted to know about this bill and that like I never have told him before, well I get angry and yes I acted a little immature but I start throwing the bills at him and tell him if he thinks he can do better go for it! The thing is it wasn't just about the bills and money it was some other stuff thrown in that had really just floored me to not believing what I was hearing. I went to bed because I had to work that night. I didn't sleep to well because of what was going through my mind. When I got up I asked what the doctor had said and she had the flu and couldn't go back to school until Monday the 23rd. So that means the field trip was off that I was going to go with her on Friday. I still didn't say I told you so in fact I said very little.

Now I had broke two of my own rules. 1) Never leave the house angry 2) Never leave the house without saying I love you. I got ready for work left said goodbye to the kids told them I love them but said nothing to my husband. This went on for two days! I couldn't stand no more and finally on Thursday morning I told him we need to talk. We did, I cried everything worked out! He said it wasn't supposed to go on this long. He was supposed to say what he had to say and everything was supposed to be a done deal on the same day. He didn't expect it to go the way it did. So sometimes things happen and we don't expect them to go the way they do and life's road takes us down a corner we haven't been before. Lesson learn? Maybe.

Just another turn in the road of life that sometimes might be a little to dark that you didn't see something coming the other way.

Yeah you are right it was pretty dark there for a couple of days, but glad things are much better now and we decided it is to much to take when we aren't speaking to each other. Although he tried to make small talk, but that just wasn't getting it. Thanks for the comment it really is true love!
