Or so I thought.

Tonight as I got off work, I called my husband at work. (He works PT at applebees in the summer to supplement his teaching checks.)

I was planning on stopping there for a little supper and was letting him know I ws on my way. When I called the host told me he hadn't shown up for work that day.

Jaysen is one of the most responsible persons I know, so that was completly out of character. I was a little worried, so I called home.

He was not at home, so of course what do I think. "There must have been some horrible accident and I've lost my husband forever."

I knew somthing was wrong, I felt sick about it. Jaysen knows I worry like a maniac so he always leaves me a message when he is going out.

So I pull up towards our building and see the flashing light of police cars. Now I think, hes been murdered, he went out for a jog and was mugged or some equally horrible event.

I pull into my sopt and who do I see. JAYSEN! Finishing an afternoon run not a care in the world. I don't know whether to hug him or punch him.

I do the first, give him a hug in all his sweaty glory, and thank the Lord he is safe in my arms.

Yep, I'm an obsessive worrier.

So what happened?

Why didn't he go to work?

and what were the police cars doing at your building?

I'm the same don't worry - My husband told me he was coming home early one day and I thought he'd been fired - it was actually my birthday and he wanted to spend some time with me so he got some work he could do at home and came home.

WOW....I would have been worried sick, as well. Now....the rest of the details! Why didn't he go to work, and why were all those police cars at your building?

Gee, worring too much, another trait I passed on to you...

Another server had called that really needed the money, so she asked if she could have his shift for that night. So he let her take it.

the police cars were there because they found drugs in a car that they pulled over in front of our building...... Not to exciting!

I do appreciate her for her caring, and somewhat worrisome ways.

I often times, which sometimes gets me in trouble, do something different than previously planned not thinking enough to notify her.

I am almost always fine thankfully.

ps. There are often times police cars around our neighborhood, for I assume harrasing "those black folks." Just kidding.

Oh Mr right~ You are right for me! Thanks for appreciating me. I only worry because I love, and can't imagine life without you!

Its better to worry then not to worry, For if you wouldnt of worried it could have been the opposite of what it was instead.
