I’ve had boneless ‘Country Style’ pork ribs in the crock pot all day. They smell wonderful.
Beau got called in to plow late in the day, so that’s out the window for supper tonight. They usually get a bite to eat after plowing, so I will just have leftovers and we’ll have the ‘ribs’ tomorrow.
I KNOW he’s mad because I KNOW he wanted to just lay around and watch football tonight. For some reason the word ‘NO’ is not in that man’s vocabulary. (Actually, lucky for me, LOL!)
We call audibles with meal plans all the time. Being flexible is so necessary sometimes.
I used to be afflicted with that disease of not being able to say “no”. Ran myself ragged for years. I hated disappointing people. Then one day, yet another person called for my help, and out of desperation, I had a moment of honesty, and told them I’d love to help, but I just didn’t know how to fit one more thing in my schedule.
After that first time, it got easier. I’m still not good at it, but I’m better than I was all those years ago.
It’s very kind that Beau is helping others, especially in this weather. Just remind him gently that sometimes it’s ok to say no. I have to remind my husband sometimes, too. Just a nudge every now and again.
By the way, the Hoosiers are really exciting to watch tonight. I’m super happy for them, and hope they continue to play like this. I’d like to see them win the whole thing!
