I Worry Too Much

Errr . . . That's according to my husband.

I sometimes worry a lot. Don't get me wrong, I am optimistic most of the times. I think there's a difference between being cynical and just being worried.

I have the tendency to worry if things doesn't go as planned, or there were time delays. I won't cite my panic moments; for those were just so embarrassing!

Everytime Hubby goes on a trip, we always text one another or talk when he got to the airport, after he checked-in, upon boarding, when he landed and got in the hotel. Calls in the morning, during the day and before bedtime. We check on what's happening at both sides.

Anyways, since Hubby is away and we almost always gets up late in the morning; there's usually a sms waiting for me to read at my phone. Hubby would always send morning and love greetings. But not the other day. I got my phone as soon as I woke up and found no messages. I wondered why, so I sent a text message to Hubby. He often answers straight away, but not that morning.

Kaiden and I went down and had our brekkie, but still, no text nor call. Then I got worried. I tried calling him through our land line but there's a Latvian message I clearly don't understand. I called through my mobile phone, 1 ring then drops out. I did that a lot of times and ends the same. I went on the net and checked my email, nothing from him.

I kept myself calm and think that Hubby was probably busy in a meeting or something. Though no matter how taxing his day has been, he normally finds time to answer my calls or sms. I sent a couple and more text messages. I called and got through with the phone ringing and I got no answer. I lost count on how many calls I've made. I was getting really worried then.

I thought of cleaning the house to take my mind off from worrying.

Then I got a text, saying he is fine and he'll call me later.

That was a huge relief! Hubby called hours after that. He said he was just very very busy in between meetings. He got up early to start work and forgot to text me. I told him how worried I was! He said it was evident with the number of sms and calls I made! Then he said: "You worry too much!"

Hubby said I worry myself with nothing. It was silly how he makes fun of it at our succeeding talks during that day and yesterday. He even made jokes about it!

Whatever! I just want to always make sure he is safe wherever he is. So yesterday and this morning, I got my usual morning and love greetings!

Hubby was engaged with too much work again yesterday that I only got sms and no call. So I sent him one telling him not to forget to give us a call when he got time. I then got a call! Hubby said that of course he wouldn't forget to call us! There were just a lot of things to do. He said I am probably so bored that I monitor him! Hahaha!

Well, that's just one instance when WORRY gets on me.

Gorgeously . . .
