I’m going to be brief, no really, I am

by

My husband and I don’t share a lot in common in terms of hobbies and the like.  But, we do make a great team.  We were fortunate that we met when we were some what older, early 30’s, and had already given  up on the one and only soul mate thing.  We knew a fantasy when we saw one.  And, we also knew a teammate when we saw one as well.

This weekend we have laid low due to Wayne’s dental visit on Thursday.  But, we’ve worked so well as a team.  This will need bullets it is so cool:

  • Thursday night after arriving home from dentist
    • he went to bed, I handled his normal bedtime routine with the kids
  • Friday Morning
    • he laid in bed and on the sofa while I took the oldest to school and entertained the youngest
  • Friday Afternoon
    • more laying around for him but I took the kids to a parade
  • Friday Evening
    • he did some piddling on the new deck, my mom watched the boys for an hour or so and I worked (and rested)
  • Saturday morning
    • I slept in, he dozed on the sofa and the boys played then the youngest went down with me for a nap, the oldest to his room for quiet time
  • Saturday night
    • he went back to bed, I did the bedtime duties
  • Sunday Morning
    • he got the boys off to church, then rested on the sofa, piddled with the deck and prepared to remodel the living room, just light activity though, while I slept and then worked
  • Sunday afternoon
    • we all went into town together, we had a late lunch, then he took the boys to McD’s to play while he used their wifi to do some massive uploads on my blog and I did the weekly grocery shopping
  • Sunday evening
    • we all came in, I got the boys calmed and in pj’s and he did bedtime routine, then the two of us worked on my stuff together

Yea, we totally rock the teamwork stuff.
