Communication is Key

  Wednesday was Adam's 30th birthday, unfortunately, he got the flu the very next day!  102 temperature, coughing, basically the plague.  Poor thing!  We had to cancel his birthday party dinner tonight.

   My parents are heading over in the morning for brunch to celebrate my birthday and Adam's (mine is this coming Wednesday), and then Adam's parents are coming over to spend the weekend after that.

  I worked all day today at the spa, then went to the grocery store to stock up on food for the super bowl and Adam's parents coming down.  I diligently came up with a grocery list, meticulously writing down every single thing I needed to make the perfect super bowl party mix!  I even bought flowers to make the house look nice since the in-laws are coming down.

   Once I came home, I cleaned a bit, pulling sheets off beds to wash, etc.  I made a beautiful floral arrangement. I took a break to eat dinner and then got up to start cooking foods for the super bowl.  I just happened to ask Adam when his parents were planning to come down and he says....



    Adam: Oh, they aren't coming down.
    Me:  what?! why didn't you tell me?! I spent an hour in bi-lo buying food for your parents, I even bought flowers!
    Adam: I thought you knew!
    Me: *sighs*  I guess we can just give the extra food to my parents when they come down
    Adam: I thought you were just being really nice to me since I have the flu, the flowers made me feel better.
    Me: Happy Valentine's Day.
