I haven't posted a MHR Friday for a couple of weeks. I have a lot I could say! What comes to mind today is how patient and understanding my husband has been. I have a friend going through a hard time right now and she needed a place to stay. When I explained the situation to Scott, he agreed. We have another friend in need of some friendship and conversation. I invited him over for this weekend prior to talking to my husband. My husband was understanding and agreed we should be there for our friend.I also made plans to go out tonight with a mutual friend of ours. The friend and I made all the arrangements prior to talking to Scott about it. Now, I am excited to say, Hubby and I are going out to dinner tonight in DC with a friend. It has been SO long since we have had a sitter and gone out! But my point is, I made plans and THEN told my husband about them. We have talked about this in the past and I agreed to always talk to my husband first prior to making plans. Yet, I still do this. SIGH I was confident that Scott would want to spend time with our friend from out of town and he does:) But this is something I really need to work on. After this weekend, I need to let my hubby do his own thing without any plans made!

I have that temptation, too.
What helps me is when I put myself in her place, then it causes me to get my priorities right by discussing plans with her FIRST, then making the plans if she is ok with them.
