What About Forgiveness?
Tonight, I drove 2 hours looking for Heath. I thought he told me to pick him up at the automotive repair shop, when infact, he had told me to get him at work. I drove all over looking for him with the kids in the car when it finally dawned on me that I probably didn’t understand him correctly and that he was more than likely at work. Guess where he was? At work of course!
I don’t know why or how I could have been so stupid. I’ve been cramping really bad lately, and I took a muscle relaxer a half an hour before I was supposed to pick him up. That probably didn’t help, but the fact remains that I screwed up big time. I wasted 2 hours and now have a husband who doesn’t understand how I could be so dumb.
I hate myself right now for being so “disconnected from reality”.

We have had so many “stupid miscommunications” lately. I’m usually the one who has to apologize, but I just get super defensive and say, “why can’t you just see where I’m coming from and lend me some grace?” I can tell you, however reasonable this response sounds, it doesn’t help end the fight. So, as I tell my kids, what is the goal of my response, assurance of my rights or reconciliation. I guess I can’t have both.
I’m soooo with you in this.

Look Jody - I’m answering you!! Better late than never!!
It was really cool seeing you at Vox last Saturday. The place was packed! Did Heath tell you that B Street is rehersing there now?
Well, as for the kids coming over on Friday night, we’re so in! It will be nice to actually be able to have a meeting with Lizette and Eric without having to watch the kids at the same time.
Love you!
