Good morning! Tuesday already? Smoking through the week…. 😀
Hubby and I usually drive to church separately. He almost always heads one direction after church (things to pick up for our business or a job to check on) and me to the grocery store, the gym, or home. Soooo…. this past Sunday I am booking to church at 8:30 am and go in and do not find hubby in our usual spot (don’t ask me why we all have usual spots but I think it is true of all of us… odd… but true).
Anyhoo.. I do not see him. So I pop back out into the hall and call his cell phone asking where he is and is he on his way. I leave a message. I go back in. I scan the room… nada… nothing… no hubster. I go back in the hall… I call again. No answer. I go back in and I sit towards the back, alone… but I am texting. ANGRY texting.
Me: Where are you?
(2 minutes later)
Me: Seriously. You better be on your way!
(3 minutes later)
Me: You are making me angry!
At this point we all stand up for a song and I notice a man who could possibly be my husband sitting on the end of an aisle about ten rows in front of me. (I know… I know… after 24 years you would think I could recognize the man!) As my row is empty except for me, to the beat of the song I sidled down the row until I am behind my friend Sandi. I whisper in her ear, “Sandi, is that my hubby up there?”
To which she replies, “Yes. I was wondering what was going on with you two!”
Well… in my defense he was wearing gray when I seen him in the morning and now it was a reddish sweatshirt. I sidled back to my seat… grab up my stuff and make my way towards him. Once sitting… I lean in and whisper “Just ignore your phone messages when you get them later.”
Holy meltdown batman!
😳
In other news (Yes, I am changing the subject) 😀 My friend and BEA two time roommate Reagan at Miss Remmers Reviews has an interesting little project going on. She is calling it Book Blogger Readers Appreciation Week and I think it is a pretty sweet idea. You can check out her post here, I have already added it to my sidebar, and I will talk about it again as we get closer to the dates of the event. I love things like this that build up the community so way to go Reagan!!!
And last but not least, Tuesday is check in day for Mari at Bookworm with A Views Checkpoint and I have posted my work out week here:




LOL that’s hilarious Sheila!! 😀
Unbelievable Amanda….LOL and the first service is the one that has the least amount of people so it was really noticeable when I moved towards the front… :eyeroll:
Sandi’s comment was perfect. Thanks for starting my day with a laugh, Sheila. Have a great one!
LOL no problem Mary…. I do tend to be great comic relief just by living my life… 😀
Well, I often have a hard time recognizing my exes when I see them; when they were current husbands, not usually…lol
Totally understandable, though, since he changed his shirt! Love the story…and the angry texts.
I too blame the shirt change…. LOL
Glad I am not the only one that does embarrassing things!! Too funny.
Nise…. I have a whole list….LOL:D
LOL your story just made me laugh because that sounds like something I would do.
It is typical me April…. LOL thats for sure! 😛
Good job Sheila, although initially I wrote good mob-maybe you should be a mobster.
Hmmmm… the mob? I wonder if I could pull that off. 😛
And why was he not texting you to see where you were? Did he not notice you weren’t sitting beside him? Just sayin’!
LOL – he leaves his cell in the car. 😀
Poor Al! *L*
Yup…. how he puts up with me I may never know… 😀
I was smiling when reading about usual spots in church, I so recognized that from my childhood. And was smiling a big smile when reading about your missing husband :). Hilarious!
LOL 😀
Oh man! That is so embarrassing! But I can totally see you doing it – and me actually! 🙂 Thanks for the plug!
Sure Reagan – I am happy to do it… one thing I loved from the start of blogging was the community and how we cared about one another. I think you are doing a great thing!
Sheila that is too funny but I can so related to that. Its happened a few times where I wasn’t sure if it was hubby in front of me. I agree I think when you go to church all the time you develop your own seats. We are like that too.
LOL – yeah… he still is harassing me about it, like “What if I showed Pastor Mark what you were texting me while I was not only in church… but in it before you!” LOL…
Mark would just laugh!
