I guess I need to fail a few more times to learn. Time. My wife. Those things don’t match. But I act as if I did not see that. That has to change. Because we all suffer as a result.
So yesterday we went to B&N. My sons and I. We were expected to be home at around 12:30. However, my son wanted to buy a gift card for his friend’s birthday. So we were a little late. We can home at 12:50. A bit late considering the party starts at 1pm. But my wife was not ready either! So we take another 10mins. So we leave at 1pm for a 1pm party. And we argue big time in the car. I get a little emotional. So gets very defensive. But she never admits doing wrong, or thinking that she could have done better. As even if we came at that time, we still would have time to get there on time, if she had been ready.
Same thing on Saturday. We had an apt at 7pm. We get there at 8. We get seated close to 9pm for a big steak dinner!
But as my mantra goes. It’s not what I can change at the other hand, it’s what I can change. I can take a bit more leadership on the subject. I know the issues. I can anticipate them.
