The hubs is outta town for work, surrounded by intelligent co-workers, eating up the city & all the delish food it has to offer & probably oogling beautiful actresses if he's lucky enough to run into one cause it's TIFF in Toronto...Those that read this POST will recall my experience with TIFF & a Mr. Paul Walker...
Some wives may be jealous of other woman while their husbands are outta town- I will 100% admit I am raging jealous....
Of the food...
Yep- I use to love going out of town for work simply for the good eats!! I chatted with the hubs last night & I got right to the point, "talk to me about your dinner", "oooh sounds delish, what about lunch?" & "explain the continental breakfast in detail"...If he doesn't describe it well enough or seems annoyed by my barrage of food questioning, I actually find myself getting irritated with him...
Now that's love...
So, on our Anniversary, while he gets to get his eat on...I'm living the bloody dream over here- All before 10 am, I've already changed 6 diapers, cleaned vomit outta my hair, did a load of laundry, tried to get peanut butter that Noal smashed into the couch out & chased the dog through my neighbours yard, stepping in dog shite while wearing the tightest of tight tank tops that clearly shows 2 nursing pads....AMAZING...
Therefore, I don't feel today is the day to get all mushy-gushy about our love...Instead today is the day I am going to tell you 4 things my poor husband should get a standing ovation for putting up with....
1- Me...In general...I'm a handful, firecracker, stubborn & spunky, to name a few words people may have used to describe me...I have a mind of my own & I'm very set in my ways...The hubs somehow balances me for the most part while putting up with my unusual quarks... Example: I refuse to eat the white part of an egg...
2- My grandeur ideas...He lets me dream Big...Whether that's wanting to move across the world, write a book or decorate the master bedroom...For the most part he lets me run with it, giving advice, reigning me in when I'm over the top & supports me in a way that really is refreshing...
3- My blog...He accepts that I share our life...Sometimes I forget how Happy Soul Project & sharing so much can affect him...What an amazing person to let me share all that I have...Not a lot of people could & I will be forever thankful he really gets how important this all is to me...
4- My cooking...Sometimes he doesn't say anything, other times I can tell by his smirk & big swallows that it hurts going down...But in general he grins & bears it...
Well now that I'm on a roll might as well give him credit for the 10 years he's put up with me...
5- My passion for bad tv...No other guy puts in as much time watching reality tv that he hates, just to spend time with his girl...
6- My contradicting equality/feminist views...I want it all, yet I REFUSE to touch the garbage...I mean I will fill that bad boy to the very top & it drives him bonks each and every time.
7- My bad habits...I eat horribly...I say "starting Monday" more than anyone I know...And I drag him down with me...
8- My over-the-top mummying...I'm everything I didn't think I would be as a mum...I'm a co-sleeping, ninging, hugging, snuggin, machine...And while I love it I am sure it can be a bit much at times...
9- My gyspy ways...If it were up to me, we would move every few years- See the world, live wherever, do whatever...I'm the dreamer & he brings me back down to reality, grounds me & really makes me realize home is us...Doesn't matter where we are...
10- My fierce love for him...And now the hooligans...Y'all can tell I'm big-old-mumma-bear when it comes to my kiddos but in reality I am the same when it comes to him...
Y'all standing yet or what?
Happy 4th Choo...If you meet any stars at least try & use an accent for my sake...Love you
