Wife Fail

I need to back track a week and address all that I have missed.  First there is huge news I must tell you about!  I have been so busy, but have been meaning to write about my husband's latest achievement!  Josh has his privates license, CFI in helos (meaning he can instruct students to fly helicopters, and he is Instrument rated (which means that he can fly at night).  This past week he prepared to take his test for his commercial license (so he can fly multi-engines or fly for the airlines) and CFI for airplane.  These test are extremely exhausting and difficult and Josh was taking two on the same day.  Well just to keep the suspense to a minimum, He Passed Both Tests!!! :)  He was testing from 9AM to 6PM...crazy!  I am extremely happy for him and proud of him.

Well here is my fail...try not to judge me, I am already slightly upset that I will not be getting "wife of the year".  So Josh's test was on Thursday, March the 22nd.  Well my good friend Shalie's birthday was on that Friday but we decided to celebrate on the same Thursday as Josh's test.  So instead of trying to reschedule the birthday celebration, I reasoned that I could squeeze both in.  I tend to do this a lot, where I fit too much on my plate and someone ends up getting pushed off.  Normally the person who is pushed off is not happy with me.  I am still trying to learn from my mistakes...its a gradual process.


Anyways, I had planned that I would be back in time to celebrate with Josh right when he returned.  Well Josh got back an hour earlier than I expected and the birthday dinner lasted 2 hours longer than I expected.  I failed.  I made it up to him, but I still felt like a terrible wife.

Although I had a great time celebrating the day that Shalie was birthed into this world

So fail number two:  Then two days later on Saturday, I went to Starbucks and met up with a friend.  I was on the phone with my mom talking about our day at the time.  I know!  I should not be talking on the phone and driving.  Well when I was driving into the parking spot, I went to far and drove over the parking block......

Ok it wasn't that bad.  haha.  But when I backed up from the parking block it ripped out my protective undercarriage plastic.  It was dragging on the ground.  So I had to call the hubs.  He was not happy...which is reasonable.  He came out to Starbucks with his tools and towel and fixed my car with zip-ties...what in the world!  He can fix anything!  


After he fixed my car, he was still upset that I was on the phone so I said "Hey I can make it up to you!  Cook out just opened!!!!"  And the world was good again.  :) I know how to cheer up my man.  haha So we had to eat there for lunch AND dinner that day.

The sacrifices I make..

...but he deserved it :)

So what have I learned?
