Would you have asked a bunch of questions or just sat there? If I don't want to talk about it, I won't tell my wife til later.
It's always good to see SLG posting and that adults can survive youth camp. Being the responsible adult that I am, I help the kids smuggle in their Nintendo DS games at youth camp. Of course I have to play as well.
No Nintendoes this week, but I did allow books to be smuggled in.
Thanks both of you for the kind words.

"i was just about to come wake you guys up when you came outside... "... ..... . .. yeah right... ... ... daddy.. . can't live without him and he doesn't know what's good for himself.... ..

It depends on what you mean by "a bunch". I would ask pertinent questions like, "Was anyone else involved?" "How extensive is the damage?" I wouldn't ask, "What was the driver of the tow truck wearing?"
As the person who took care of the business end of his company, I'm the one who dealt with all the paperwork and phone calls anyway. His reason was, he wanted me to get a full night of sleep and not worry. Sorry, when you are in a marital partnership with somebody, you share it all. If it were the other way around, besides emergency phone calls, he would be the first person I would call. Not because I need him to handle it. I lived by myself for years before we got married, I know how to take care of myself. I would do it because we share a life (and a car payment) together. Know what I'm sayin'?

My sons never call their dad when they wreck. He's the one who falls to pieces.
But he SHOULD have told you. That's my vote, even though it is late.

Last year Thomas was riding with someone who rear-ended an SUV and I didn't fall to pieces at all. I mean, I was very, very concerned and left immediately to drive to the accident, but I wasn't even crying.

My husband would have not set foot in a doctors office in our 20+ years of marriage if I had not called the office, set up the appointments, put the appointments on his schedule, then nagged him every day for a week prior to the appointment to make sure he went.

Good man...but a better man would have taken his wife's word for it...
I too would have wanted to know, BTW!!
I was reading this thread this morning and I reread what I posted above...and I felt like what I said didn't come off as being very kind...so please accept my apology for that...
I do believe MrsSoprano's husband IS a good and better man...afterall...she married him...

psssst, your husband's name isn't Dennis is it?
Listen, for twelve years, FOR TWELVE YEARS I asked him to go and see a sleep disorder specialist to find out why he snored so loudly. When we went on family trips, everyone had to have earplugs because even the children couldn't sleep in the same room with him. It was horrible.
Finally, this year, I had enough of the earplugs every night. I found a doctor and sat in the room with him as he called and made an appointment. Then I reminded him to go, THEN I reminded him to actually call for his results and then had him call for his breathing machine. After a month of sleeping soundly through the night, he says, "Man, I don't know why I didn't do this YEARS ago!"
