I admit, I am a baby

Bible study today.  We were missing at least 4 out of the group.   The topic today was meaness, and standing firm with our beliefs.  Putting on our shields to fend off temptation.    We have such lively chats, all of us ladies, that time flies by so fast.  I would love to do another Bible study next year.

The only thing I really had planned for today was washing the car.   I wanted to hand wash off all of the bugs.  After this weekend it gets stored for the winter.  I am lucky enough to have hot and cold running water in the garage. That is where I wash the vehicles.  I got my bucket of soapy water ready, drug the hose from the shed, hooked it up to the faucet, turned it on and water shot everywhere.  My sweatshirt and jeans were soaked!  I turned off the hose, and unscrewed it.  The little, rubber, washer thingy in the end of the hose was missing.    I have used that hose all summer long and never had a problem.  And the last person to use is gonna get chewed out.   HUBBY!      I went and grabbed some quarters from his stash, then uptown to the car wash.   But the job is done.   Goodbye Mustang until next year!

The hubby really bummed me out last night.  He keeps talking about going uptown Sunday afternoon to play cards.  On our walk last Sunday, one of the guys he played cards with last winter told him they had a group playing on Sundays at our local pizza place.  The hubby has had it in his head that him, and my son, and his friends are all playing on Sunday.   Well that is fine and dandy but I don’t play cards.   And Sunday is the only day he has off, the only day for us to spend together.  My feelings were hurt.   When they played last winter it was at our local bar, and I would go with.  I chatted with the bartender, played those silly little video games, basically waited for him.  But I am not going and sitting at a table watching him play.   He made the suggestion, I will teach you to play tomorrow night when I get off work.  Now how good do you think I will be by Sunday?    So I did what any  wife would do, I sulked the rest of the night!

Before this our friends called and wanted to know where we were going on vacation.   Yeah the same ones that got into a fight and left early on our trip a few weeks ago. We had talked before about going somewhere late December or early January.   The hubby and I have talked about going to New Orleans.   I haven’t been there in about 10 years.   Then maybe taking a 3 or 4 day cruise from there.  I have been looking on line at cruises leaving from New Orleans, and the only place they go is Cozumel, where we went last year.

They have put me in charge of finding something.  And the guys have said they will go on a cruise ship. But both of them keep  whining about it. I have been surfing the web to find a destination. The only requirement is somewhere to go snorkeling.  But nobody wants to go back to Cozumel, so I am afraid it looks like New Orleans is out of the question.  Gosh I was ready to eat some fresh oysters!

They have another big rain storm predicted for this area tonight, and tomorrow.   If the hubby gets rained out on Friday, I probably won’t be such a big, baby on the card playing for Sunday!
