OK. So my wife is sick with something (she still won’t tell me what). She was in bed all day yesterday and most of the morning. She was pretty much immobile except she did make french toast because I wasn’t feeling so hot this morning myself. Anyways, she is moving rather slowly and, well, sick.
Then her sister calls wanting to know if she wanted to go to Seattle today. Of course, she says yes. So an hour later she is off to Seattle to do research for their business. One minute she is barley moving, the next, she is out the door. For some reason (and I’ll explain it in a bit) I am a bit perturbed about this.
My reason is that yesterday I was supposed to go to an event to finish building my longbow. I had it planned and been looking forward to it for 2 months. The day finally comes and I end up taking my kids to the doctors office. I don’t mind a bit about going to the doctor’s because it is my kids health. But I do mind that my wife is dragging around one day near death and the next she is off to another state!
I understand it when she said that she feels ill all of the time. What I don’t understand is why, if she is feeling so bad, does she take off when the opportunity presents itself? For someone feeling so bad, she was certainly happy enough when she said bye.
Its really starting to get on my tits about her complete lack of respect for me and her utter lack of interest when it comes to anything that I have planned. Perhaps I’m being a bit selfish. OK, probably a lot selfish, but dam it I really wanted to go to that event!
Erg, I have no ideas at the moment about how to proceed. But yelling really really loudly is looking like a good plan at the moment.
