Lifes little moments...

Ok occasionally, I will brag on my wonderful husband. Now understand, I am not one of those people that believe that life is all-grand and everyday is splendid, believe me it ain’t! I like to believe life is a bowl of cherries, and we just come across a couple of pits every now and again. Or like my husband tells me “Honey if we were June and Ward Cleaver life would be boring”.

So let me share with you my one and only tip for a great marriage: Laughter

With that being said yesterday my husband and I stumbled across a pit, otherwise known as a disagreement. So we were having a discussion yesterday. Lets go back to last fall, We were going somewhere and I was driving, for one reason or another I was flustered and went to back out of the drive way, in the man-a-van (my husbands unique name for the mini van I make him drive, because yes it sucks that bad, not mini vans in general, just ours) Anyways back to the story, I am backing up and somehow completely missed the car that’s parked maybe 15-20 feet behind me. Well needless to say, something went bang and the van shook, So with a smile on my face and in my sweetest voice I turned to Jared and said what was that, his reply “That!, that was a flippen car.” At which point he growled at me! So we got out looked, it left a small dent, I went and told the person who was so nice about it, she said it was perfectly fine, no big deal. And life was good, until ….yesterday. We were discussing his Corvette, and why I don’t like to drive it unless absolutely necessary. I explained to him if something happened to it, he would be so mad at me and I would feel awful, Well him being the caring husband he is said “Oh its ok that’s what they have body shops for” At which point we revisited last fall. I said "Remember the van?", Imagine if I wrecked something we actually liked. He said, kinda Attitudy Judy like, “Well you backed up and you didn’t even look behind you” My reply
“So what your saying is I can hit stuff as long as I look at it first, Wow that doesn’t seem like an accident to me. If you ask me my opinion, If I saw something and I was going to hit it I would say to myself I really need to rethink this.” We both started laughing hysterically and his reply “You know what honey hit whatever you’d like”

My first post... Thank you!!!

First I want to start by saying thank you to all my friends who have left the NICEST comments on my scrapbooks and have been amazingly friendly, and all of you that have joined as fans thank you. Last night I joined the forum "Let me tell you a bit about that", I had bought a new program, and after a few hours of trying to figure it out myself, and much frustration I finally gave up and asked for help and within a few moments I had not one but two of the most helpful responses. SO THANK YOU again!!!
