The question for today is....

What time wrap does my husband step into that makes errands go on for the better part of 4 flipping hours?  Let's dive into the details... yesterday - post meeting day 1 - all is well except for the fact that my eyeballs popped open at 8:00 AM and stayed in that position.... so usual morning.  Up, pups tended, sit and enjoy peace and quiet... then hours later Bubba up, showered, barking orders.... I assist (because I'm a dork that's why) and clean up the back yard, while he mows the front yard, then based upon the time, we stop, luck up the pups - and head to - the movies!!  Bubba wanted to see "Green Lantern" OK movie -we enjoyed, ate too much popcorn and after the movie we headed home.

Got home, Bubba finished the lawn mowing, while I made dinner plans for next week, and made a grocery list - which Bubba took with him along with the coupons and away he went.  When he left the house at 3:15 PM he was headed to a 3:30 PM massage appointment in Germantown.  Then he was going grocery shopping from a list - with coupons broken out for stuff we needed on that list.   He arrived home at 7:30 PM.  That boys and girls is 4 hours - check my math - I'm right right?

Now when asked "what the heck happened to you?"  We spun the wheel of Bubba emotions and surprise! we got Cranky!!!  I'm sorry - a massage is 60-90 minutes tops, how freaking long does it take to get dressed pay, and go the store.  For me it's another 10-15 minutes... So now we are at 1.75 hours, it takes  you 2.25 hours to grocery shop - from a list?  Oh - whoops I forgot he called home to wish his father a happy father's day - you can't do that driving to the store?  Ok fine - Bubba doesn't multitask well - take on another 30 minutes for that... we're at 2.25 hours.  1 hour and 45 minutes to shop?  It wasn't that long of a list!  Am I wrong?  OR as was stated to me during our "cranky" period - "I am careful and use coupons not like you who has to run through the grocery store and it doesn't matter how much money you spend."

Well - F - u very much Bubba. I'm sorry I have 600 other things to do than spend half a freaking day at the grocery store.  AND I would have remembered the parts we needed for dinner last night - instead you got what you got.  Dorkus.

Now I also think there were two factors involved here - 1) he'd eaten nothing but popcorn all day and 2) he talked to BOTH parents because his father stayed in MD to "enjoy" his father's day - alone.  ;-)   Hence the sh-t head comment and the additional BS that went along with - no Bubba - I'm not going to wait another 30-45 minutes to eat - its 7:30 already and I need to eat!   If  you wanted to edge the yard - then you should have let me go to the grocery store then you could come home and done it.  Because we all know it would have been closer to 9 PM before we ate dinner!!  OMG no way - that has got to stop!   And he just doesn't get it... 1) I need to eat, right and regular and 2) I will start waking his snoring ass up when I'm awake and looking for the Rolaids - because we're eating 90 minutes before going to bed!!!   I swear some days I think he thinks I'm making this crap up!  And how many dinners would you like me to eat in one day?  Mr. "Get a snack and deal with it"   I did - but again how many snacks do I have to eat before I've eaten an entire meal?

(and breathe... in... out... and ahhhhhh).  Zen has returned.  Or at least the vent is released.  No meeting tonight - easy dinner and again Zen like happiness or ignorance is bliss...

Oh and fun for tomorrow - doctor's visit... yeah - let's see what new ideas she's got for me... heck I may have her write instructions that  I have to eat before 8 PM - then I'll laminate it, frame it and stick it in Bubba's face.  OK maybe not full Zen yet.... getting there.

Happy Monday y'all.   Oh visual evidence of the Wheel-o- Bubba
