Marriage Can Be Rough!

The hardest part about being married is that you are married to someone who is not you! I have basically lived as a single woman for the past 8 months, and now that my sweetie has moved back home, I am trying re-trying to learn how to live with him all over again! He sure can make it tricky, although I am sure I don’t make his life too peachy at times too.

The biggest issue that I am having right now is that I AM A NEAT FREAK, and we live in a very little place, in relation to how much STUFF we have!!! So, to me, it is really important to keep the house as clean as we are able to, on a daily basis. My sweetie? well…let’s just say, NOT SO MUCH! He is a drop it as soon as I come into the house kinda guy, which drives me BATTY!! I am trying really hard to loosen up, and just be sooo thankful that he is home, and I have been doing REALLY well, too well, because when I got home from a hard day of work today, I walked into my house, and WHAM!!! There was 3 mini mountains of his stuff that he brought home today. OH, not how I wanted to be greeted by my haven, needless to say.

To make a really long, downer-of-a-story short, the “mountains” of stuff are gone, the kitchen is clean, there is the FABULOUS smell of sauteing onions in the air, and I am feeling sooo much better!!! I think that the 100 degree weather, and a crazy busy day at work just made me a little irritable, and my sweetie knows exactly how to make it all better!!! I really do LOVE that man!!! 😉

Right after I finished writing this sentence, my husband called me into my dining room, and he had made me a candlelight dinner!! SO SWEET!!! OK, he’s forgiven!!! 😉

OK, so I am watching this movie from 1956, “You Can’t Run Away From It” with Jack Lemmon and June Allyson, and during the commercial break there was this commercial that was advertising something called a Yonanas, which inspired me to google how to make ice cream using frozen bananas, and honey, you just know mama has to go get her some bananas to try this recipe!!!

Anyway, apparently I was REALLY craving something sweet, because I found myself in the kitchen crunching up some graham crackers, putting them at the bottom of mini carafes, piled on a little mini marshmallows, toss the whole bunch of heavenly goodness under the broiler, and top with some lovely chocolate syrup!!! Yummy, low cal, did I say YUMMY? dessert!!!

Anyway, I am heading upstairs to go spend sometime with my sweetie!!!

Have a FABULOUS evening! 😉
