Actually, the only thing I can think of wasn't weird or stupid, it was sweet.
I was getting ready to divorce Mr Isla after years of being treated poorly... one of the little reasons was because when we were just starting out (he had graduated and started in the IT field, and I was getting ready to go back to college), we needed a sofa. You have to understand, we were a family of 4 with NO SOFA. We had good credit and the promise of a bright financial future, but I still was not allowed to use it for such a frivolity.
He would not put a sofa (or anything that wasn't what HE deemed important) on a credit card, so, reluctantly, I offered to sell my childhood piano.
I did not want to do it, but he would not agree to finance a sofa and I wanted my children to have someplace to sit.
Anyway, he never really appreciated the sacrifice I made, and our marriage just got worse and worse.
Finally, when I had enough, I told him how I felt about what had happened to my piano and how I hated myself for being that stupid and him for being that stingy and selfish. I was so over the marriage at that point, I was just letting him know just how deeply I regretted everything.
Well, I guess he really didn't want to lose me, so 3 years after the piano was sold, he tracked down the guy and bought it back for me. Offered more for it, too, so the guy couldn't refuse.
THAT got my attention. I thought we were just going to get a different one, but he got the one my parents bought for me when I was 8.
Having it back has really helped in the healing.
