• First and foremost, I had a ball at Itty's birthday party.  We had a TON of food, the grilled veggie salad and smoked ribs were a HUGE hit (as were the hot dogs... thanks Tom!!!)  Here's a "cake" shot:

  
  

  

  
  

  I've not been blogging a lot because a lot of what I've been doing has been focused on getting my Creative Memories "business" up and running.  It's not really happening.

  
  

  So, we managed to score a free iPod for Husband.  I was on our computer on Sunday morning getting iTunes set up on his user ID and everything so when it came in we really only had to plug it in and go... so after getting everything set up, I rebooted.  When I logged back on under his user name his Yahoo! instant messenger auto-booted and when it logged him on it was a really strange ID that I had never seen before.  Then, on his contact list was one person, a woman.  This probably wasn't the right thing to do, but I right clicked on her and got her user profile.  She's a 30 year-old professional female that lives not far from us.  After seeing that, I logged off and finished up with the iTunes install/config.

  
  

  During this time, Husband is upstairs making us breakfast and keeping an eye on Itty.  Never before had it ever crossed my mind that he might be seeing someone else, but honest to goodness it did after I saw what I saw.  I ran it through my head a dozen different ways as to how I was going to bring it up to him.  I mean, after all, I was technically invading his privacy.  I never ever log onto his user account on the computer, and I don't think he ever logs onto mine, but even if he did I don't have anything to hide.

  
  

  So anyway, I go upstairs because he calls down that breakfast is ready.  I've lost all semblance of an appetite.  We sit down at the table and he asks me if everything is okay, and I crack... no, I smash like a dropped egg.  I feel my world crashing in all around me and I ask him, "Are you having an affair?"

  
  

  He litterally dropped his fork.  He looked at me like I was absolutely crazy and said, "WHAT?!?!"  So, I told him about the Yahoo! thing and how I didn't mean to invade his privacy but it just happend - I didn't do it on purpose.  Then he did his best to explain the situation and said he would never ever cheat on me.

  
  

  When it comes down to it, I love my Husband more than anyone else in the whole world (except Itty).  I also trust him and if he says no, then I believe him.  It certainly didn't do much for this gal's morale though... as I'm still kinda scraping myself off the pavement.  On the bright side, he's been particularly attentive these last couple of days and I do believe him... heh, anyway if he is cheating, his poor mistress never gets to see him.
