Why am I the man of the house?
Sometimes it's as if, if I don't do it then it is not going to get done. Now for some that know me they would say that would be my typical "Co-dependent" comment. But really am I the only one that cares about locking up the house, Closing doors, turning off lights, shutting off running water either from the faucet (Yep) or the toilet (because no one will fix them). I literally could go on and on.
71/2 years ago I met a man who had been out of prison for 1 year. I found him to be kind, caring and loving. He had a good job, his own car, established his credit and had a decent place to live. I felt relieved that I had finally found "The One". At first I did the "don't worry about a thing" crap and did everything, cleaned, cooked, laundry......etc, etc...
But now well let's just say could I at least get someone to lock the house at night before you come to bed. Jeez. After we got robbed a few years ago, I have had this fear of it happening again. I lost some very precious items that I can never replace in that robbery. Rick on the other hand lost nothing of value. His response to me is as long as I am at home noting will happen. Well CRAP he works out of town and I am left at home alone most of the time and when he is home he is so tired he could sleep thru a train wreck.
There was once a story and I have no idea where I heard if from but in it there are a husband and wife who are sitting at the table talking. They decided to tell each other what bugs them the most about the other one. In this story the wife goes first and starts going on and on about all the things the husband does that drives her crazy. Kinda like me with the lights, doors and such. It is quite a list and after she is done it is his turn. This man looks at his wife and says "I don't like the way you peal an orange". That's it. She is dumbfound and says "really that's it", he says "yep". The moral of the story is everyone has defects of character and it is up to us to look past them and find the person we fell in love with. Learn how to cherish them in spite of there faults and embrace the good things about them even there defects.
So I try, I do really try.
This man is the love of my life I refuse to lose him to anything.
So now I just have to find the orange in my life
and make juice.
