From the mouths of babes....

June 9th, 2009 at 03:35 pm

DH and DD were "arguing"(playing) back and forth over something that DD wouldn't share. DH said "well, see what happens the next time you want popcorn." DD said, "you don't buy it anyway, mom does". She didn't mean it to mean, she was simply stating a fact that I do the grocery shopping. she has no idea the struggles that he is going through right now. But I cringed when she said it. DH didn't comment on it and didn't act like it bothered him. Hopefully he knew she didn't mean anything by it.

DH didn't work yesterday so he cleaned the kitchen, cleaned the back porch, picked up the yard and was basically very productive around the house. That was very nice. Still need to pick up the living room and vacuum...it is amazing to me how it gets to messy so quick! I did get the bathroom totally scrubbed this weekend, including the closet that is in there. Felt very good and productive!

    I love productive days. I'm busy downsizing. Took a large load of 'stuff' to the junque' booth yesterday and still have a potful of good stuff sitting here to be priced today. Off it goes.

    Congrats on you and your DH getting a lot done. My Hubster (still unemployed) has been hitting the yard work long and hard, making all the neighbors jealous of my carefully trimmed yard! Now, if I could just redirect him into the house! Big Grin

    That reminds me of when I was a kid (past the Santa Claus stage) and when my brother/sisters/and-or I would open a gift, we without fail would say "wow, thanks Mom!!" After all the gifts were opened, she'd quietly prod us to go and thank our Dad as well. One year I looked at her and said "but you're the one who buys everything" and she replied with, "true, but he's the one who pays for it all" (my mom didn't work until I was about 18)
