Fibbing by omission

When I scratched my car on the gate
I said nothing it wasn’t long before he noticed When I acted surprised he said it had probably been a trolley in the supermarket car park
Who was I to argue 😊

When my husband was alive he loved stews but he would only want meat carrots onion and potato and dumplings in it. I would bung in swede celery and pearl barley I just had to be careful when putting his out not to include them on his plate how he never noticed all the extras on my plate I’ve no idea but I did the same thing for years.
I did put parsnip in once and he kept saying this stew tastes funny like you’ve put sugar in it. So I didn’t do it again.

Years ago my husband was having trouble sleeping, he also drank loads of tea. I started buying decaff tea bags and put them in the tin without telling him.
For three weeks he came home from work and lay on the bed saying he had a bad headache... (caffeine withdrawal?)
Eventually he realised, and I admitted what I'd done.
He said he did actually feel a lot better for it and has drunk decaff tea ever since.
I did feel a bit guilty at the time though ☹️
