Occasionally I have dreams about an ex-boyfriend and it always makes me feel guilty in the morning.
Trips are stressful. DH likes to travel, but I prefer to be home. I always have a good time once I get wherever we're going, but... I hate packing for the trip, I always forget something important, even with lists and I like to come home to a clean house, but cleaning and packing stress me out. DH is no help and the kids are always underfoot. Well, he's some help. I make him pack his own stuff (so he can't blame me if he forgets something) and he does load and unload the car. I have to make arrangements for the animals and something always dies when I'm away.
Next, I hate driving. DH hates my driving, but am I the one who has had 4 accidents? Nooooooo. He drives too fast and expects me to entertain him with witty conversation in order to keep him awake and has me check the other lane before he moves into it (does he not know how the mirrors work?), he also likes me to arrange his sandwich wrappers so they don't drip onto his lap, and I have to keep the kids entertained. When it's my turn to drive, what does he do? Takes a nap. Men.
While we're on vacation, DH is great. He wants to spend time with the kids and he saves up money just to blow it on vacation. He likes to take me to nice restaurants.
Then we have to drive home and unpack all that mess (so much for the clean house). I especially love when the kids sleep in the car on the way home, then want to stay up all night when we're about to drop.
Can you tell I'm looking forward to my trip in a few weeks?
