I told Bob yesterday that I wanted to go with him for his "Sunday drive." We'd go see his brother in Amherstburg. He whinged. Today, I told him I'd be ready in an hour and we'd be off. He whinged.
On our way out the door, I told him I wanted to go out to Harrow to a little antique shop. He replied with, "don't get the idea that you're going to be spending every Sunday with me just because I'm taking you today!" I ignored him. On our way out of town I was commenting on things we were passing, he replied with, "are you going to talk the whole trip?" I ignored him.
We went to the antique store and he was a prince. He wandered while I sorted through old post cards looking at stamps. I fell into a box of US stamp plate blocks from the 70's, some Canada plate blocks from the 40's, some First Day Covers and I now own Icelandic stamps, for only $15.00! He feigned interest, but didn't whinge!
We went to his brother's. Had a lovely visit, and HE chatted all the way home. I made no snide comments!
