I have a bad habit of calling my husband at work a few times each day. I didn't always do it, but it's developed over time and now I have to break it. Don't get me wrong. He doesn't complain and as far as I know, his boss hasn't either. But I don't like to bug him while he's working.
Yesterday was not a habit breaking day. I called him about four times. One to thank him for taking out the garbage every week. I had seen a woman wrestling with her
That's when he said he was packing up and coming home.
"What?? WHY??" I asked, dismayed not because he was on his way home, but because he sounded upset and I was afraid he was hurt or sick or in trouble...you know. I must have sounded panicky, because he replied,
"It's really slow. *pause* Why don't you want me home?"
Dear lord. All those jokes about my "piece on the side, Paolo" had come home to roost, as such jokes will. I quickly assured him that I was delighted to have him home, then told him to get the buns after all, since his coming home early knocked my afternoon plans back online. So, after she finished with her homework, Drama Queen got a coveted trip to the library, the little ones got a coveted trip to the park right by the library and I got a coveted afternoon with my sweet, sexy

I was the same way when my husband worked out of the home, we talked several times a day. Whenever he was on the road going to appointments we always chatted. Although some days I got nothing done because of it! LOL
I think it's great that you talk throughout the day and as long as hubby isn't complaining or his boss, keep it going. It's sweet :)
Sounds like it was a fun day for all.
I, somehow, end up calling my husband for silly things too. I think it's my undying love for him that makes me want to hear the sound of his voice.
