Commented to my man that we better take care of this Christmas tree (still needs to be put in the box!). He looked out the window and suggested we wait til the snow is gone – a little too cold to plant it now.
For a moment I was puzzled – then I caught on. Have to be more specific about things.
***Just a small suggestion – after washing eyeglasses, be sure the frame is dried well – I cleaned mine a few minutes ago and found it very cold/uncomfortable to have any moisture on the frame. Being I clean his every morn, I imagine I’ve left some on his and he wouldn’t comment – so, I’ll watch this next time.
It never hurts to be careful of/specific about how you say something. My mother-in-law would just up and say something without any preamble, and it was always hard to figure out just what was on her mind. We tried hard to get her to be specific, but she would get mad when we didn’t know immediately what she was referring to, even though her statement was sketchy, to say the least.
Thoughtful and detailed…that’s you.
Oh boy, kind of stops you in your tracks, doesn’t it?

I “planted” my tree in the basement a couple of weeks ago. I totally agree about the glasses too. You are so very thoughtful.
