Shutterbugmama's Journal

I've tried to be quiet; It's impossible.

My husband is currently out of work (because his industry SUCKS), and before people start taking me too seriously, I'll get back to my roots and count the blessings in this experience.

(Cause, really; I'm liking it... sometimes).

1. Things are getting fixed!  The little things that were buggin me are ALL getting fixed.

Including Pest Control.

2. Whenever I feel like, I can invite him INSIDE...

in love

I DO know how to get a guy in from the garage, ya know...

3. If I need help with something, I know he's around...here..somewhere.

(I'll check the garage first).

4. He can cook, and cook he does!

shopping

I do the shopping, he cooks, AND cleans up.

Quite the arrangement.

5. The car is washed, AND waxed.

driving

6. I don't have to light my own fires in the fire place which SCARES THE HELL OUTTA ME.

I think he was a boy scout, but he says that has nothing to do with it since our fireplace is gas...

confused

7.  When he gets something to drink, he asks me if I'd like something, too.

I LOVE THAT.

8. We laugh A LOT together, and I've missed that.

9. He has WAY less laundry nowadays.

10. He cant use the excuse, "Look, I worked all week, Elle".

Pfft...HA!  The power is mine, ALL MINE! Bwa-ha-haaaa......

See?

This isn't so bad.

In fact, while the baby sleeps, I think I'll go invite the guy in...

xo

Happy Monday, Sisters.
