Really? Did this just happen? I am lying down. Watching a little netflix. Getting ready to go to sleep. Husband walks up. Asks if I have a job tomorrow. I reply yes. He says, "that'll be fine." Like, do I need permission to work? Or what could it possibly mean? Irritating. To say the least.
I am much wiser than I used to be. I don't take it to heart. But, it does give me a reality check. A moment to stop and thin, "how was I that blind?" How did I possibly think that was ok? Seriously???? No way is it ok. Healthy relationships are much more equitable. It's not doing me a favor if he does something around the house or does something with the kids. And, it's not up to him to approve or disapprove my actions or whether I work.
That'll be fine. Sure. Whatever.
Actually...it will be. Because I decided to do it. Because I want to do it. Because it's somewhere that is a good place to be. And.....for pete's sake...doesn't he get that it doesn't have anything to do with him?
Everything revolves around him in his vision. It's too bad. How lonley a life it must be.
grace to you.
