I’m now driving home. Nervous and trying to find a way to add myself to this guys trip. I was really looking forward for my time alone for the weekend and now that is gone. I had to cook up a plan to include myself and fast. The fishing trip was this weekend (it’s Wednesday today). What if I call Cynthia? Maybe she can join me and we can make this a “wives” thing as well! But first I needed to convince my husband who was also looking forward for his time with the guys. Maybe if I play the bored wife and promise to stay out of the way he will let me tag along. I know, I’ll make it a hiking trip for me! He knows I love hiking and I haven’t hiked the woods around that lake. Yes. I’ll do that.
