And it should have been soooo good. It started out that way. On Saturday, we spent the afternoon and most of the evening in a really swank hotel here in town.  We didn't stay the night b/c we didn't have a kid-sitter. It was kind of a surprise date night cooked up by my wife and she even gave me an early anniversary present while we were there. Pretty great, eh?

Well, then Sunday rolled around. And the morning was okay, but sort of eh. And then the afternoon... urgh, not so much. K & A were both in awful moods. It eventually really got to me, and I ended up feeling in a pretty rotten mood too. It all culminated in this big, loud, mean, fight. It really felt like it came out of nowhere.  :(  I was really confused... a what just happened here kinda thing. We just do not fight. Ever. We've had disagreements a couple of times, mostly over Amanda, but seeing as how neither of us is really the arguing type, we've always stayed calm and cool and talked it through. And even that is sooo rare. This was totally different though and it really sucked. I don't handle conflict well, generally. And this was just so mean. And loud. *sigh*

We both apologized, eventually, but things still feel kind of off.

And then to top it off, I couldn't find my wedding and engagement rings last night. I still couldn't find them this morning. :( :( I've looked everywhere I usually put them when they are off. And I've looked in all the places I would never put them. I went through our suitcase from Saturday night... not there either. I clearly remember taking them off at the hotel, but I don't really remember what I did with them after that. I have this sickening feeling that I left them at the hotel. But the hotel manager says they don't have them and no has reported finding any. :( Gah, what a sucky weekend.

We've got an actual anniversary vacation planned in a couple of weeks, and now I am sort of dreading it.

Oh Courtney, Now you vented and made up. Next time try saying " I am sorry you feel that way" and leave it alone. Don't take anyones bad mood or negative energy on yourself.

Sorry about the rings I know my partner lost her over on a golf course. Of course I made her pay to replace it. I just didn't have the money. Some times if we just back up and rest the picture clears up. So try to step by and relax.

Please don't dread the anniversary trip... You have quality tme together enjoy it and count it as a blessing.
