I asked my husband what he wants for lunch...

I hope he says dirty dishes. That would be easy.

things they don't tell you when you get married #35

Do not iron your husband's clothes. You start one day as a favor, to be nice. And to be honest he did the dishes so it was a nice exchange. WRONG. He will use his cute little husband face and take advantage of your housewife skills and your low tolerance for saying no to him and he will ask you to iron his outfit every day.

This is why I don't make dinner every night, he'd get in the habit of liking it. This is precisely why.

Life is not a competition.

The best part of living in a retirement community is that I am the fastest one on the walking trail. I speed by the canes and the tennis-ball footed walkers and I don't even break a sweat. Until lap two, I break a sweat on lap two.

Life is not a competition. But if it was, I would totally win at walking. Probably not in my age group, but in the 70+ age group I would be a champion.

wait...that's not an apology

Bryan and I got in a fight the other day. This is how it went.

"Well, I am sorry....that you were wrong."

"I am sorry as well...that you are stupid."

"I'm sorry you don't know what you're talking about."

"I'm sorry that you don't comprehend what I say."

"Apology accepted."

"Me too."

Then we hugged and got some frozen yogurt. All's well that ends well.
