Weekend musings
Well, my vacation has officially begun. Not that we're planning anything special, just catching up on some needed work around the house ( painting, weeding, spring/summer cleaning etc.) My hubby wanted to take some time off, and he picked this week, so I went with it as well. Let's see how well we get along this time next week lol!
Part of the reason he picked this week is because Sept. 1 will be our 20th wedding anniversary. God- where did the time go? You have to understand that I didn't want to marry- EVER. I swore this all my young life. After all, I was strong, independant ( being an only child makes you that ) hard working, with a good mind. I was always taught by my Father that I could do/be anything I wanted, without the help of a man. So why marry? And Kids- God NO! I had no experience with babies, or young children, and the thought of having some of my own scared the bejesus out of me. Sorry, no, don't need it!
So her I am, 20 years later- wife, mother of 3, about to celebrate 20 years of marriage. Has it been easy? HELL NO! Not to say that it's been all bad either. But it has been work. I married a man that had/has 9 brothers and sisters. He is quiet, hard-working, cynical, and has a lot of interests that are nothing like mine. How is it we've weathered all the sunshine and storms? Despite all the differences, He loves me. I have yet to figure that one out lol . And the funny thing is - I love him too.
I will be online quite a bit this week ( when I can get him off his civilization III game!) so keep in touch. And if you have any suggestions ( not expensive please- we're spending money on paint and plants, so funds are not overflowing!) on what we can do to mark the day- let me know. I'm a bit overwhelmed by the event to think clearly on what would be a fitting tribute. Thanks for "listening",
Have a good weekend! Peace, KC
