I'm shocked my H doesn't want a divorce.

I don't think his Father's Day could have sucked more.

I didn't have a gift or even a card for him.  I'd planned on going Friday to get him a golf bag (didn't really want to go earlier since we don't really have a place to hide something that big), but my grandma came in town and wanted to spend time together (aka, have me drive her around town).  Saturday I had a shoot and a baby shower and then when I was going to take the boys to go get the gift, H decided we should go see his dad.

I felt autrocious yesterday.  I literally couldn't get off the couch all morning.  While I lazed around and slept, he cleaned the house from top to bottom and wrangled the kids. 

I finally got up about lunchtime and was going to take the boys to get his gift and give him some peace and quiet for a few hours.  I spent 10 minutes with my head in the toilet before I could get in the shower, but finally got out of the house.  On my way out, I offered to bring him home lunch.

Tried to find him a card.  There were basically none left.

I got him a really nice golf bag and a rain gauge (something he's been wanting.  Random.)  Law got out of the car and announced that we got him the bag.  I handed him the bag with the rain gauge and said, "give this to daddy, too."  H said "I sure hope it's lunch!  I'm starving!"  I'd completely forgotten to get him something to eat.  He waited three hours for me to get home with lunch.

I suck.  Royally.  Luckily, he was a good sport about it, but I'm sure he's disappointed.  :(

  • If it's any consolation, I didn't get DH a card or a present.   DS made him a garden stone with his foot in it at school, so that's what he got.  As a matter of fact, DS & I went to the beach with my parents yesterday, while DH went to help his dad hook up a new sound system at their house.   We got home around the same time and I told him to make his own hamburger 'cause I wasn't hungry. I did offer to make a salad....
