ellen and I are going to see Tony Attwood tomorrow. YIPPEE!

I told dh about this when I signed up. I sent him an e-mail on April 1st

that read:

"

Mark your Calendar -

Tony Attwood Conference...

7am - 4pm

"

I have been reminding him over the last couple of days. So tonite he comes

home from work and says " I have to pick up Jacqui from school tomorrow,

right? " . " Yes " , I say, " you have to TAKE her to school too. "

DH: " What? You never told me that! "

ME: " Yes, I did. "

DH: " No, you didn't. All you said was that I had to pick her up. "

*sigh*

ME: " YES, I DID tell you, I even sent you an e-mail (referencing e-mail

above).

The man does NOT listen. I swear!!!!

So not only does he have to take her to school and pick her up, but has to

be home at 1:00 for the TV repairman and has to take her to her Drama Class

at 4. Talk about putting a cramp in HIS day. I don't think he dare say

anything though because not too long ago he told me that I had to

opportunity to do whatever I wanted during the day.

Sure, honey...I have the opportunity to do WHATEVER I want during the

day.... Think he'll say that to me again?

At least yours remembered (granted, you knew enough to keep on him

about it). Mine forgot and we had to get MIL to be here when the bus

comes just in case he's not back from his appointment. GGGGGGGRRRR!

I have Matt's clothes laid out and have to show dh which medicine to

give him in the morning.

I can't wait!!! Just to see this guy. I've only heard about him.

I'm hoping it will help me understand DH too.

I'm feeling you pain!! I have reminded my husband for days and

days..Monday an appointment for Logan, ST for Zach, pick up Logan go

home get , then go and pick up Zach..crazy yes, but it is the

only place in our schedule it fit. I called him, and yes, he got it.

So, he calls, very proud of himself, and says I took Logan to his

appointment, Zach is in ST, and we are playing Jacks waiting for him

to finish. I said " Thats great, but you are suppose to be home

getting YOUR SON OFF THE BUS!!! He said WHAT?? I FORGOT!! So he hung

up, throws Logan in the car and zooms home. Poor was waiting on

the front porch trying not to look scared. (This from DH) He said he

aplologized so many times that said " A toy or money might

might make it up to me. " Oh my budding little capitalist.
