My husband is a stupid, stubborn idiot. God knows I love him but he can infuriating!
We are very strong on routine around here, it helps with Lucy's mental health issues and our Sunday routine starts with Jack & Lucy walking the dogs down to the newsagents, buying the Sunday newspapers and walking back again. It's about a two and a half mile round trip and takes them around an hour. I have a slow morning then make us all a full English breakfast which we eat sitting around the breakfast bar, reading the papers. We can be very domestic at times.
Despite having been somewhat less mobile over the last week, Jack was very insistent that he did the walk this morning. He did acquiesce to using a cane at least and I know the dogs will protect him - they're properly trained and he's their alpha.
They'd been gone almost an hour and a half (and I was starting to worry) when I get a phone-call - it had taken them all that time to just GET to the shop and Jack was admitting he couldn't walk back so would I drive down and pick them up.
As tempting as it was to punish him, he was in pain and miserable. So his punishment was to be left alone downstairs while Lucy and I indulged in Sunday playtime. We were nice and loud too, made sure he knew exactly what he was missing out on. I must admit I was annoyed though; I had plans for him but they can wait.
(He will be getting a proper punishment when he's not in so much pain, mark my words. Worrying me like that!)
This afternoon, he was sulky, horny and still in pain so I was gentle on him. We did manage to keep to our usual Sunday afternoon routine though. The three of us played some Trivial Pursuit and I happily won, though it was a close game. Lucy is now cooking us a nice roast beef dinner and that combined with the raspberry chocolate brownies I made this afternoon... the house smells amazing.
I'm cuddled up with Jack who's relaxing after partaking some... shall we say herbal pain relief. I took a hit or two as well so we're nicely relaxed. Lucy will be joining us in a moment, dinner is basically done and it's almost time for Doctor Who.
