Sick Day and my thoughts again for August 2

Today was spent packing for vacation, cleaning the house and tending to K who is dealing with a really bad headache and a fever. Hopefully she is all better soon and our Ohio trip will still go on as planned.

Now onto some of my thoughts for the day.  I have spent a good portion of the day, reminding myself who I am. I am a wife, mother, aunt, sister, daughter, grand daughter, and a good friend.  I like to think I try to be the best of all of who I am. But who are we kidding, it can be hard, right? Obstacles will always get in the way, living so far from family is the biggest obstacle right now. Disagreements get in the way.  I am not going to lie, my husband and kids are my #1 priority.  I hope everyone else feels that way too (not my husband and kids, meaning your own, lol) I love my husband and he loves me just the same, we made a promise to each other May 5, 2001, to be there no matter what. Sometimes I don't agree with how he acts, but he is my husband and I don't have to like him all the time.  And I will not let family members or friends come between us, we have a strong marriage. We don't fight, interesting huh? We have never had a fight, we have disagreed. But we are both right and we leave it at that. lol. JP and I live for fun, fighting is not fun, so why would we want to do that? We will joke around about most of our disagreements, because we realize we were both being silly.  He can't change the person I am and I can't change the person he is.  Does he frustrate me? OH YEAH, but anyone can be frustrating at times.

So I hope that makes sense. I love all my family, whether we agree or not. Everyone is different and in my world that is ok. Who wants everyone to be just like them and agreeing all the time?

  1. Too many people do not put their husbands first! I think you are wise to do so. It is a shame more people do not honor marriages and family time.

    If you ever need a reminder that you are a good friend, call me! : ) You are a very good friend and a nice person.

    Hope Kenzie feels better for your trip! Enjoy your last family vacation for the Summer!
