Back from Reno

 

I didn’t realize how much Nick and I needed some “us” time.  Everything is wonderful between us but I guess we get so excited to spend time with our friends when it’s the weekend that we forget we need to spend time together.  We Drank lot’s of alcohol, gamboled, laughed with family, and laughed A LOT with just each other.  I know this is cheesy but it was almost magical when we laughed in sync with one another.  It felt like 5 years ago again when were first dating.  We could not stop laughing with/at each other.  Our trip to Reno confirmed with me that Nick is more than amazing!  So basically to sum it up our trip to Reno was a blast! 

Men are simple…

It always seems to be the important things in life we tend to take for granted.  My husband is the most amazing man, as a husband should be but I don’t think many people actually have what they expect a husband to be in their own husbands. 

 

Everyday when Nick gets home from work the first thing he does is look for me to give me a hug and a kiss, tell me LOVES me and ask how MY day was despite if his day was shitty because he IS interested in how MY day was.  I was listing to some statistics on the radio that Dr. Laura was reading a few nights ago and 70% of married couples don’t even stop what the are doing to acknowledge that their significant other had even walked in the door after a long day of work while only 10% percent who did only said hi/hello.  This leaves only 10% for the couples who give hugs/kisses and discuss each others day.  I see this as sad, this minority should be a MAJORITY.  This is also probably why divorce rates are up!

 

I’m sure some of you are thinking “Dr. Laura”???  I enjoy very much listening to her.  There is A LOT of stuff I don’t agree about with her but she breaks down complex issues and makes them simple.  For example: Men are simple, she says.  Too many women complain about petty things like:  he didn’t ask me to go with him, he didn’t notice my new hair cut/color, he didn’t buy me a nice present, he wants to hang out with the “guys”,  he doesn’t care, he does not give me any attention.   Men are simple because they don’t want drama as us women do.  They do love use otherwise they would not be with us.  As for women if we really feel the examples above and we don’t want to make changes and accept them then why do you stay with our men???

 

Anyway, the whole reason for this blog is because most of the calls I hear Dr. Laura get are from women complaining about their husbands/boyfriends.  People (Women) need to lighten up and look more on the bright side of your relationship.  As for me, I’m just plain old lucky when it comes to a caring husband.  He lets me be me and who I want to be.  He encourages me to do what I want to do, he trusts me, and most of all I know he loves me.

 

 

Just about a farm.

So I’m extremely terrible at writing blogs on a regular basis.  I always have stuff in my head that I would love to blog about but it seems I never have the time to type them all out.  I will try to make bloging my new years resolution since I haven’t made one this year.

 

Yesterday Nick and I went to Grange Co-Op to get some baby chicks, 6 to be exact.  They are sooooo cute.  We currently have 3 chickens but only one lays eggs.  So when the babies are big enough to go outside and start laying we should be getting about 3 to 6 eggs on a daily basis.  Right now they are in a little aquarium with a heat lamp in the closet in our kitchen 

 

Today Nick kept begging me to get some baby turkeys so I finely gave in and we went to Big R and bought 2 turkeys.  I have no freaking idea what the hell we are going to do with them but we have some now.  Soon, when we get our 2 little goats we will have a whole damn farm!  That’s right, Nick and I will be getting out 2 baby goats in about 2 more weeks.  They will be Nicks pets as well.  Anybody be in need for some goat milk soon????
