She goes, "How can you just lie there while I have to deal with everything? I've got to run errands, cook, clean, and..." well, the decibel level spiked quite suddenly, I suppose. So, I actually set the paper down and—to her absolute surprise—asked, "Do you need help with anything?" She went dead silent for a second, then just said, "Fine, go to the grocery store; I'll make a list of what we need." And so, I decided to walk instead of driving—mostly to get some steps in, since I hadn't been to the local market in nearly a year. ☕
As I was walking down the street, I noticed this new fitness center had opened up right near the road. It was set back from the sidewalk a bit, so I peeked inside, and—I swear—I actually saw 😲
this young woman running on a treadmill, and the whole floor seemed to be vibrating. Honestly, I was praying someone would step in to stop it because it looked like things were about to get a little out of hand. 🙂
An older lady who was cleaning the storefront spotted me and pulled the security shutter down. 🤦
Anyway, I kept heading toward the store, still somewhat thinking about that intense scene I just witnessed, but when I finally stepped inside... well, she hadn't actually given me a list. 🙈
I ended up wandering around aimlessly for a while—I honestly cannot remember what she told me to get 🤔 so I just grabbed a six-pack of beer and headed home. On my way back, I noticed the shop's shutter was already closed. Once I got through the door, the noise level in my house shot up instantly; doors were slamming everywhere, and I basically ran straight for the bathroom while my wife bolted back out to the store...
😂👍
