Sabotaging my quest for sanity??!!

I love my dear husband (Love you, Gary!!), but I think he's sabotaging my quest for sanity... It's no secret I'm crazy...I'm not one that's uncomfortable with that term. My view is we all have our crazies, some are just different from others and some of us have more than others :-).

Lately, I've been feeling crazy in a different way, though (you know, other than my usual - ADD, OCD, Labeling obsession...etc.). I can't remember ANYTHING!! I used to never forget important things, but now all bets are off! I find myself going into another room to get something and not remember what it was once I'm there. Or I'll SWEAR I turned the porch light on only to come downstairs a few minutes later to find it turned off. There's a pretty good explanation for that second one - It's no secret that Gary follows me (or anyone else in our home) around turning off lights. Something about saving energy or money he says. But he keeps the central air thermostat at 68 degrees all summer. Hmmm.

Last night I SWEAR I went into Porter's room and closed his blinds and turned down the covers. Gary tucked him in and we went to bed. I went in Porter's room this morning to get him dressed and the blinds were open and the bed was made, all except the bedspread. I was giving myself a headache trying to figure out if I'd totally lost my mind when I thought I would breakdown and ask husband the rediculous question "Lover, did you make Porter's bed last night and open his blinds BEFORE you put him to bed?". (See why I didn't just ask in the first place?). His answer was "I pulled the top blanket back...". Apparently, after he pulled the sheets and bottom blankets up?! SABOTAGE!!!

So...I thought to myself, I wonder what else he has been up to? I've noticed the Daily Shower Cleaner bottle finds its way to the shower floor when I'm SURE I put it away high in the window seal (we do have a 4 year old that really likes spray bottles). This is not likely since I'm pretty sure Gary's never USED the Daily Shower Cleaner, but it got me thinking... I decided to start making more of an effort to really remember things I've done and see what is happening. I will be keeping score and am thinking of devoting a blog to just this purpose! Well, turns out after my shower this morning I TOTALLY caught MYSELF putting the bottle on the floor after I was done with it??!!

Total today:

1 for "My husband is sabotaging my quest for sanity" and
1 for "I AM loosing my mind!"
