You Need Me To What???

In the almost two months since I left my job to prepare for baby and to be a Stay At Home Mom, I've been given some rather unusually different tasks to complete by my other half.  Today's task seems to be the most interesting thus far though, and I thought that I should share.

My husband has his Conceal to Carry license because he often has to spend time out on job sites that are often in rather dicey parts of towns around the region.  Due to this, he usually keeps a pistol with him when he travels.  It has become an automatic habit of his to pack his pistol just as he does shaving cream and contact solution.  This afternoon, he and a coworker are embarking to spend the next day or so at a job site on a military base to be present for some tests that must take place.

Without thinking this morning as he packed his belongings, he automatically packed the pistol and put it in his truck.  Thankfully the coworker he is going with reminded him that he cannot, under any circumstances take a weapon on a military base, or he (and the coworker with him) would most likely face if not jail time, a huge fine.

So, my task for the day?  Meet him this afternoon at his office before he leaves for his trip and bring said pistol home with me.  While not exactly what I planned to do this afternoon, it is a far better thing to do than to have to visit my husband in the GI Joe pokey occasionally, just because he wasn't thinking clearly one morning.
