That wife word

We have been married for almost 4 months now! Crazy stuff! I have realized somethings in our marriage.

  • Cooking ain't no thang
I have always been worried about it. Yeah, I'm no Martha Stewart but I can do it! 

  • House Cleaning No Problemo
I really actually like cleaning. It makes me feel so much better when the dishes are done, carpet is vacuumed, and the bathroom is so clean you wanna kiss it!

  • Laundry easy peasy 
As long as I am constantly doing laundry I will remember to take it out of the dryer. It seems so much easier though then when I did it at home. We won't talk about what it was like when I was a single.

I never said I was good at any of these, I just said I could do them! 
So I burn a lot of things I make. So I clean once a month. So the dishes set in the sink more than dishes ever should. So there is pee on the ground in the bathroom. Jk. We aren't that gross! One thing I have realized is I can be a wife. I can do the things I need to do to keep this family functioning. I am still learning but I am trying and if anything I have realized it is that trying is better than doing nothing. Daryl appreciates it when I'm trying. He doesn't care how good it is. He cares that it's done. 


Here are somethings that would make me a better wife/mother:
  1. Learning how to thread a sewing machine (they make things automatic now and when     you can't figure that out. It is just sad.) So I'm working on that.
  2. Sewing on a simple button on a shirt. (Yes, Daryl does this for me)
  3. Taking the laundry out of the dryer the first time it buzzes. (Not keep turning it on 5 times because you forget and have to let the wrinkles fall out again)
  4. Cleaning the shower. (It seems so simple but do you do it when your naked in the shower, like before you wash your body? Because It just seems so awkward to do it clothed to me)
  5. Not burn a batch of cookies. (Yes, every time I've made some. They burn)
  6. Going alone to grocery shop. (I feel so awkward at the grocery store alone. I feel like everyone is looking at me like a pre-teen and judging what I am buying. So I wait for Daryl then I go)
  7. Doing things out of my way for my husband. (I mean we do fun things together but I swear there isn't a creative bone in my body. I am always like I wanna be sweet then he bring home a taylor swift cd for me and makes me dinner. What's wrong with me?)
  8. DIY Project. (I have these pinned for days on my wall on pinterest. I will make one of them one day, I am just scared I will screw it up and waste all that material..then what)

I am just going to stop there. I could go on for days on that list. 

My husband can do EVERYTHING! And if he doesn't know how, he will figure it out. I guess that is what you get for marrying someone better than you!
