The Hardest Conversation

I was prompted by Mama Kat at Mama's Losin' It! blog to do a little writing today. I was going to do it last night but I passed out on the couch, was able to sleepwalk to my bed, and then pass back out. She has a Writer's Workshop each week and gives prompts for you to explore your creative writing side. I chose to write about a difficult conversation. Now this conversation has not happened yet, but I imagine it will go something like this.

Me: "Honey we really need to update the downstairs bath to match the rest of the house"
Steve: "You're kidding me right?"
Me: "Ummm not really. It doesn't match the look we have going with the rest of the place"
Steve: "It's fine!"
Me: "Sure if we live in a lodge, which we don't! We live in a Victorian Cottage"
Steve: "And just where do you think we are going to get the money to do this?"
Me: "I am just talking about some new tile, paint and some crown moulding"
Steve: (insert exasperated sigh here and imagine him walking off)
Me: "I'll help" (yelling as he walks into the next room)
Steve: (insert mumbling here)

Maybe if I insert pictures like these on a daily basis I can wear him down?
