Down Day Yesterday

Don’t know how else to word it but I wouldn’t exactly call it a melt down “yet”. I was supposed to begin my day with my realtor to see a new property that just came on the market last week. And the really cool thing is that it was just about 5 min to work! Hubby and I were both so enthused with the looks of the home and the views were out of this world! Well that didn’t happen.

Just as I was getting ready for my appointment, the realtor called to say that that house was taken off the market the day before. The gentleman did not get his relocation like he planned, so he’s going to stay put in that home. That’s just fine and I didn’t take it bad at all as I know something is out there for us somewhere. Hubby and I have always been big fans of patience and we’ve learned time and time again that it pays off.

So yesterday I set off doing my own thing but for some reason the realization of these hotel walls got to me. I began to feel these walls closing in around me and I closed myself in and shut the world off. Not a good thing, but that’s what I did.

By the time Hubby came home from work, I had pulled myself together and was anxiously waiting for him to come home. We had a nice dinner alone and talked about our plan and where we go from here. It was a wonderful evening and Hubby made me feel so much better.

We came back to the hotel and hung out together enjoying a few shows and had fun just hanging out together. I had already decided not to tell Hubby about my down day as I didn’t want to put this undue pressure on him. He’s working hard and I didn’t want to burden him with my little “off day”. Well, right in the middle of our wonderful evening

Hubby asked – Is everything alright?

I smiled and said – Things are fine darling

But he sensed something and continued – What did I do?

Debbie – Nothing honey you’re fine

Hubby – What didn’t I do?

Debbie – Honey you do everything just right. (tear) Kinda had a down day and these walls closed in on me.

Hubby – Darlin’ thank you so much for being here with me and putting up with this hotel – you mean the world to me and I couldn’t make it a day without you, everything is going to be alright.



That just melted my troubles away and I’m back on my feet raring to face this beautiful day. I’m off to the salon in a while to get a nice little cut and some color. If Bobby can swing it, he plans to meet me for lunch. I feel so blessed to have such a wonderful caring and loving husband and so thankful he’s really tuned into me. I’m on top of the world today!
