Well... his reaction to my first post was the typical man reaction... "I'm the butt of the joke, you got people laughin' at me".... but overall he liked it and applauded my want to get back to my writing roots. -So thanks boo.
His reaction motivated me to not only talk about how his little mishaps tick my nerves but to (and it's only fair) air my dirt too. OK... so I don't wash dishes all the time, in a timely manner...but I cook! And yes, there is possibly more of my hair on the bathroom floor than on my head, but I sweep it up. And ok ok ok, I have never cut the grass, mopped the floors or vacuumed pretty much anywhere in the house...but he's so darn good at those things, my efforts would be wasted! ;)
So there it is... the biggest marriage cliche'..."its all about give and take." I pick up the trident wrappers and dirty laundry before he vacuums....and trash the many dropped gum wrappers and sales receipts before he mops. I guess that's fair...
So yes, we both have our things to nit pick about but ha ha ha.... this is MY blog! And like I said before... I love this man... but boy can he urk a nerve in me!
Until the next adventure......

The beginning and 8 Months in....
Hi All...
I decided to start this just because I used to keep a diary when I was young and it was very therapeutic. I hope this will be the same, but instead of me finding a dusty composition notebook in two years, I'll have this site and will be able to see and share how I've grown in my marriage.
OK... so my hubby and I met in October 2003. We sniffed around around each other for a while and really hooked up the following year in Feb. Now.., at the time we were total night and day. He was (and still is) a total church boy. No smoking, drinks on occasion, parties only on Friday night and was at church more than the Pastor. All of which makes him and excellent role model and all around great and responsible guy. Got good grades in college, got a good stable job and more... good headed man, right?
Fast track to September 2010.... I married the guy! I mean how can you not love a man so great! Since he follows the Lord, he is loving and caring and giving.. what more could a girl want?......or so I thought....
SO, getting back to the point... here we are 8 months later and I'm starting a blog! LOL... while marriage is a beautiful thing... picking up a weeks worth of underwear outside of the shower from where he took em' off and hopped in, picking up dozens of trident gum wrappers off of EVERY surface in the house, constantly running out of oil sheen (which I didn't know he used), & washing gum off MY clothes because someone never checks their pockets before putting clothes in the hamper (when they make it to the hamper) is not!
Ladies when you pray for a man, be specific! Don't get me wrong, I love him to death... but you also love your puppy and they still poop in your shoes! While all these things are super minor.. any woman would agree they are also super annoying. So as I grow to learn the true roots of this man (things you will never learn just by dating)... I hope to use this spot to share some annoyances, stories with whoever follows and get a few good laughs. Once I show this to him, he might create one about me!
