What It's All About..

So now that I've been married for almost 6 weeks (and of course know everything there is to know about marriage) I figured I would write some of the things down.
First thing I learned: Getting up with your husband at 5am to make him lunch..is NOT as easy as it sounds. I lasted approx. 3 days. I keep trying to make an effort..but somehow my feet just never hit the floor that early. But I'll keep trying!
I have also learned that marriage is about compromise..would you rather watch fishing and hunting shows? or start a silly argument over the remote that could lead to some bruises on your arms that will raise questions at work. I've learned to sit and watch the shows..just not quietly..commentary is always needed in hunting shows! And if you are lucky he might have a change of heart and allow you to change the channel. 
And last but not least. Now that we are married it seems my husband is unable to do laundry.
Now I know he is very capable of doing laundry because he has had to do his own for years.
But now that he has a wife, it seems he has completely forgotten how to run the washing machine, let alone fold clothes. But it's okay, as a wife it is my duty to take care of those types of things..laundry, dishes, dusting and vacuuming. Although they might not be my favorite things to do..it makes me feel like I am doing my God given wifely duties when my house is clean. And hopefully someday I will be able to keep up on it all. Until then, I will do my best to make a home and a happy husband.
And continue to enjoy married life :)
