I wish I had a new ring...
I wish I had a new wardrobe...
I wish I had great hair...
I wish I had an ass like that...
I wish... I wish... I wish...
But my momma always taught me to be thankful for what I have...because I have a lot more than most. But damn did I have to work hard for everything. I used to sit and watch others always get what they wanted but I always had to work for everything I ever had...sometimes I thought of how nice it would be to just be handed something. I know it has made me a better person, but man I am so tired lately.
I was going through this box at home that my husband and I keep. We put all of our cards and love letters in it. The ones most recent are ones that I have put in there...I think he slowly forgot about the box. I read this one card that I wrote him when we had been together only 4 or 5 months and listed about 100 little things that I loved that he did for me. For me it was the little things and not the big things that mattered. I told him that he should go through the box one day this week to reminisce, and I put that card on top.

Ellie, isn't it funny how the little things mean so much......I remember a time back in the day too.To me it is ALL about effort.
How long have you and your husband been together? In Sept. I will have been married for 16 years. Can you fricken believe it??? I turned 20 and got married 3 months later. I always tease him that he has a childbride { he mostly agrees, because he says I still act like a child LOL}
If I could wish for anything it would be for time. My life these last couple of years has been a blur and so much has happened and I blink and months pass by. I would also like more time for myself, but I know that in a couple of years my kids will be grown up. One of my bestfriends' wife left him 2 years ago, with 3 daughters { they are my kid's ages} so I feel like I am the wife to 2 men and have 5 kids most days.
My friends tease me and just tell me that I am going for sainthood.....but I fear I am going to get many a fork in the ass where I'll end up due to my uncontrolable mouth teehee!
In the words of Billy Bob Thorton,

Nice Ben...very nice...lol
Nic, we have been together for 6 years, married for 3 this October. I think that everything in our lives happened so fast that we are just trying to catch up. I have to realize that my hubby probably wants a little alone time too....but hubby gets alot more than I do. It's been awhile since I got a little something to show off... doesn't mean he loves me any less...we are just both trying to catch up is all!
:)I understand...
For me, jewelry does nothing for me. Infact I don't even wear my wedding rings, or any ring for that matter, unless you count toe rings Teehee { With my job, I wash my hands like 100 times a day, and I kept leaving them EVERYWHERE!!! so he finally put them away. He told me he thinks the rings were like a noose around my neck....haha}
If he was gonna buy me something sparkly, I would sooner go on a vacation or holiday.
Nah, of course not getting things doesn't measure how much he loves ya....esp when kids are involved and mortgages etc.
What shows me love, is effort..and because I work from home, it is REALLY easy for all of them to treat me like their servant.
El, I don't mind being someone's servant in the bedroom, BUT not the rest of the fricken house!!!!!
the ring I have been eyeing is one with my son's birthstone. That is the only reason I wanted it.
We are going on vacation to the beach in Sept for a week and we are counting down the minutes. It will be sweet!
hey how'did'ya like my cheer???
Well that would be nice for you to have. One Christmas mine had a family ring made for me...him and the BOY share the same month, and me and the GIRL share the same month so it is pretty. I never wear it though, but the thought is there.
I can honestly say after the two "rings" of fire he has given me, I am in no hurry to get any kind of ring from him again!!! LOL
I'm sorry, did someone say 'servant in the bedroom?'
I just wish I had a servant so I had time for the bedroom..
ALWAYS make time for the bedroom El!!!
Ps. do you know anyone looking to buy a nice hammock??? Must sell mine....
if it's not a sticky hammock, put it on ebay!
No, it is not sticky, and I am not really selling it...long story.
It would be very bad to use it now, and usually I like bad, and bad is good, but this would be bad bad
teeeheeee
