He was the biggest slob on the planet. Back then, he had to wear suits to work. He would walk in the front door and take his suit coat off and leave it on the chair at the computer desk. Walk into the dining room and take his tie off and leave it on a dining room chair, walk into the family room and leave his shirt on the love seat. Sit down in "his chair" and take his shoes and socks off and leave them there. Sat there in his work pants and a white undershirt while he watched TV. Never picked up any of that crap.

He was WORK. He worked late every night. I'd feed the kids their food around 5:30 and then make our dinner. He'd get home between 6:30 and 7:00 and sometimes he ate what I made and sometimes he would say "I'm not in the mood for xxxx" (even when it was something he liked) and he'd leave and get take out mexican or spaghetti or something. Useless. Absolutely useless.

I did bath time with the kids, bed time with the kids. I took them to daycare and picked them up every single day. Took them to school and picked them up from latch key every single day. Ridiculous.

I remember you posting that he called you a lot to fix things. I agree with Phrozen. You seemed to be more like a mother/wife to him. Did you ever tell him how you felt about cleaning up after him? And like, how you felt you did everything?

I’ll bet you couldn’t wait to get in that empty bed with hubby now back in it.

lol
Yes! I’m just now waking up. I slept SO good. I mean, I thought I’d wake up to some kind of background noise, but instead * crickets *. Everyone’s gone, so I checked my phone and saw this text from my hubby. I laughed SO hard. I just cut and pasted his text below. HILARIOUS!


Hey babe,

Took the kids out for breakfast and to the mall to ride the rides since you were still in a coma. I tried waking you, but you didn’t budge, and for a second, I thought I was gonna have to start making some phone calls. Even put my finger under your nose to check if you were still with us. Scared me half to death. Good news, you’re alive. Bad news, I think I aged five years. Hope you’re well-rested.

Love you
