mediocre day

well, my day has been very up and down today.

See that red, swollen mark above my eye? Yeah, definitely bashed my head on our new pub mirror today. Didn't exactly feel good. But, I still had to get ready for my PARENTS to come over, which I was super Excited about.

I even convinced Jamie to help me with the dishes, lol. He looks pleased, no? =)

We also took a quick trip to starbucks, and got Minnie a pup cup, which as you can see, she was quite happy about. =)

My parents came over for a few hours, which was Super nice, because I missed them. We talked, and looked at pictures, and exchanged vacation stories and gifts, and it was Awesome.

Then Jamie and I took a bike ride, which was all well and good, but then we came back to the house, and apparently I was irritating him by wanting to be in the same room as him.

Every time he would say something, I would ask about it, and his answer was finally "Why do you always have to know everything about what I'm doing?"

Well, as his wife, my feelings were pretty hurt. I know he is someone who really treasures his space and personal time, and i guess I wasn't giving him that, but there are much better ways of saying that, like:

"I really need some personal time right now, if you don't mind."

That probably would have been better. Especially considering that he knows that the time he spends with me means the most to me. I could be with him in the same room for days at a time, and not be bothered a bit. I just wish he could understand that. We haven't talked since, and that was about 2 hours ago. Dang it.

I guess the best thing I can take from this is that I know that no matter how upset with him I am, (and i was pretty upset) that i love him. I know we will talk it out, and get a better understanding of each others feelings, and the next time a situation arises like this, we will be better prepared for it.

I still can't see my life without him, which is why I know we are perfect for each other.

But, I'm still mad.
