To Love…
Yes, I know, the entire site is about marriage so certainly love is included. But, let me tell you about my husband. He is a packrat, he is cluttered, he is unorganized and none of that bothers him in the least. And, I am totally the opposite. Organization is my love, well I mean, besides him.
Either way, I’ve been sick. And, if you’ve ever had to take care of sick people, you know that it takes undying love to do this. We are knee deep in this remodeling stuff that I mentioned weeks ago. Last weekend was my deadline for finishing the front deck and our family room. Except, I was sick. That wouldn’t be too big of a deal except, the kids were sick too.
And, my mom would normally help with the boys even though they were sick would be fine and I could have just got out of the way instead of helping…except, my mom had a funeral to attend and so she wasn’t available.
So, instead of finishing this remodeling project which has half of my family room pumpkin orange and the other half plain sheet rock that needs sanding, he was playing nurse to me and the boys. It was not a pretty site. And, of course, after we all did our illness recuperating, he got sick early in the week so he couldn’t work on the house then either.
Now, it is Friday night, I’m still suffering from mono relapses which are enough to make anyone crazy and the boys are at my mom’s. With that, he is suppose to be sanding and painting my family room. Right? Except, it is raining and he says you can’t paint while it rains.
So, he is working on the floor in the bathroom which is another one of our remodeling projects. No kidding.
Anyway, when I was telling you about the love this man has for me, I also want to show you how smart he is, because I’ve told you but now I must show you. He had done all of this alone.
In the next post, I"m going to show you how he goes about doing the projects that he simply needs another healthy human being to work with him.
See how pretty the floor is……
