I'm going away more often

real conversation with my husband yesterday...


ME: (on the phone, calling from work) hun, I'm running to the grocery after work while you're at practice. want to add anything to the list?


D: whacha got on the list for dinner this week?


ME: well, I've got that new pasta dish I was telling you about for tonight and other stuff... blah, blah, blah....


D: won't you be at that cycling meeting when I get home from practice tonight?


ME: yeah - I figured I could just make dinner for us when I get home - is that ok??


D: I guess. Or is there anything you'd like me start getting ready for dinner while you're on your way home?


ME: *complete silence* what did you say?


D: well, I figured you aren't going to be getting home until late so I figured I might be able to get something started while you're on your way home.


Ladies... I DID IT!!! Three years of training and I finally got him to VOLUNTARILY ask if there was something he could do to help with dinner!!!


WHOO HOO!!!!!



That's it. I'm going away for the weekend more often.

I'm so proud of you...and of him! Now that you can cross off making dinner, what's next on your "things my hubby knows needs to be done, but waits until I have to ask him to do it" list?

I want to know what he made.... Hey, PB&J would still count in my book, but what did he "whip up"????
