Let's Talk...

We are at a bit of a turning point here at the Gunkel house. In a few different areas, God is tying up loose ends, closing some doors and opening up some new ones.

SO, I ask my precious (in a manly way) husband while I'm fixing dinner,

"So how are you feeling about life?" (meaning, of course, the areas that are changing a bit.)

And he says, "Good."

Recognizing that he appearently doesn't want to talk I say, "Oh. Okay."

A bit later, I say, "You know it kind of hurt my feelings earlier when you didn't answer my question. With everything going on I thought we could talk about it."

He very seriously and lovingly responds, "What? We did talk about it."

To which I point out that he avoided my question.

He says, "You asked how I felt. And I said 'Good.'"


Well! There ya go. I guess we did talk about it. Silly me.

A very wise woman says often that "Men process with TIME. Where women process with WORDS."

I think we've proven her wisdom to be true. :)
